Summary:
"In her collection of linked essays, Jerkins takes on perhaps one of the most provocative contemporary topics: What does it mean to "be"- to live as, to exist as - a
black
woman today? Doubly disenfranchised by race and gender, often deprived of a place within the mostly
white
mainstream
feminist
movement,
black
women are objectified, silenced, and marginalized with devastating consequences, in ways both obvious and subtle, that are rarely acknowledged in our country's larger discussion about inequality. Jerkins exposes the social, cultural, and historical story of
black
female
oppression that influences the
black
community as well as the
white
, male-dominated world at large. New York City-based writer Morgan Jenkins graduated from Princeton University and is a contributing editor at the Catapult.co online magazine and publishing firm."--Provided by publisher.
