Recenzii
Praise for the new edition"Black Feminist Thought continues to be an inspiration and foundation. The continued relevance of Black Feminist Thought thirty years later means a new generation will be inspired and fortified by the essence of Collin’s words. While the country, indeed the world, has shifted since its initial publication, there is a critical need for taking seriously the intellectual and personal challenge Black feminism offers to engendering social justice. Black Feminist Thought answers the call by reminding us of the power of our own ideas. This volume’s important additions offer a new way to read a classic text and take seriously its mandate that we continue to forge a path to a future where Black women are free."
Zakiya Luna and Whitney Pirtle, Authors of Black Feminist Sociology: Perspectives and Praxis
Praise for previous editions
"With the publication of Black Feminist Thought, Black feminism has moved to a new level. Her work sets a standard for the discussion of Black women's lives, experiences, and thought that demands rigorous attention to the complexity of these experiences and an exploration of a multiplicity of responses."
Women's Review of Books
"A superbly crafted book that provides the first synthetic review of Black feminst thought."
Feminist Bookstore News
"The book argues convincingly that Black feminists be given, in the words immortalized by Aretha Franklin, a little more R-E-S-P-E-C-T. Those with an appetite for scholarese will find Collins's book delicious."
Black Enterprise
"The author discusses how knowledge can foster African-American women's empowerment. In line with her own deepened understanding of the issues since the first edition, she emphasizes Black feminist thought's purpose in fostering both empowerment and conditions of social justice, provides a more complex analysis of oppression, and places greater stress on the connections between knowledge and power relations. New themes include the nation as a form of oppression, as well as a transnational, global dimension. Topics are organized under the headings of the social construction of Black feminist thought, core themes, and Black Feminism, knowledge, and power."
