Description: Black Feminist Anthropology: Theory, Politics, Praxis and Poetics established a new canon that guaranteed the voices, theorizing, and experiences of Black Feminist anthropologists could shine out loud in ways that 25 years later are still "healing," "life-saving," and an affirmation of these transformative and decolonized contributions. It is both an archive and a legacy for the next generation.
Review Quotes: "What is so powerful about these women's voices is that their theory is based not only on a self-reflexive and autobiographical framework, but it is positioned in a framework that boldly declares its commitment to scholarship, theory-making, and social justice. It is a very important book for anthropology, for feminist studies, for African American studies--and ultimately for all of us."--Anthropological Quarterly
