The Rising Song of African American Women

From Publisher:

The Rising Song of African American Women combines historical voices, spiritual consciousness, and liberation politics to provide a much needed historical, political and sociological context for understanding the lives and experiences of Black women.
In these provocative and creative writings, Barbara Omolade explores the politics and visions of Black feminists in our world today, examines the social and cultural significance of Black women intellectuals, and places the present day work, family, and sexual experiences of most Black women within their historical backgrounds.
The Rising Song of African American Women creates a Black female "everywoman" who is both typical and unique. By speaking to a number of specific events and issues, Omolade presents a challenging political perspective and describes and analzes the significance of Black women's lives in creating a powerful new way of writing about history, sociology, politics and activism.
