Schwarzer Feminismus

When Sojourner Truth asked whether she was not a woman during her speech at a women's convention in Akron, Ohio, she sparked a debate the extent of which could not be foreseen. She had criticized white women for racism and black men for the sexism that they brought against black women in equal measure. It was not until the end of the 20th century, almost 150 years later, that this specific form of multiple discrimination was given a name. It was Kimberlé Crenshaw who coined the term "intersectionality" in 1989, which has since become an integral part of feminist discourse. But how did the black feminist debates go up to that point? What challenges did black women face in the Global North? And what can we learn from them today? This volume documents the continuity of this feminist intellectual tradition using selected texts by Sojourner Truth, Angela Davis, The Combahee River Collective, bell hooks, Audre Lorde, Barbara Smith, Kimberlé Crenshaw and Patricia Hill Collins. They appear for the first time in German and are thus made accessible to a wider audience.--Publisher's description
