Purchase options and add-ons

This volume utilizes the cross-cultural, historical and ethnographic perspective of anthropology to illuminate the intrinsic connections of race, class and gender. The author begins by discussing the manner in which her experience as a participant observer led her to research and write about various aspects of African-American women's experiences. She goes on to provide a critical analysis of the new scholarship on African-American women, and explores issues of race, class and gender in the arenas of work, kinship and resistance.

Editorial Reviews

Review

"Mullings' greatest offering is her transformational viewpoint, which presents fertile ground for real solutions to the problems faced by the African-American community.--Assata Zerai, Syaracuse University."
"...practical applications in the classroom, especially in the anthropology courses, where applying research on gender in restructured ways could help foster an understanding of social policy issues. The scholarly work in this book also can be valuable for other educational practitioners who would like to revamp their women-centered curricula, particularly those emphasizing disciplines, such as literature, history, health, and science." -- NWSA Journal
"Mullings' greatest offering is her transformational viewpoint, which presents fertile ground for real solutions to the problems faced by the African-American community.--Assata Zerai, Syracuse University."

  • Karen Cudjoe
    5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent, well documented book on Black women
    Reviewed in the United States on April 21, 2000
    Leith Mullings sheds the light on work-related and environmental hazards to Blacks and especially Black women. If you think racism and sexism are things of the past Mullings will show you what's not so new about the millenium.
