See all formats and editions

In spite of the double burden of racial and gender discrimination, African-American women have developed a rich intellectual tradition that is not widely known.

In "Black Feminist Thought," Patricia Hill Collins explores the words and ideas of Black feminist intellectuals, as well as those African-American women outside academe.

She provides an interpretive framework for the work of such prominent Black feminist thinkers as Angela Davis, Bell Hooks, Alice Walker, and Audre Lorde.

The result is a superbly crafted book that provides the first synthetic overview of Black feminist thought.
