Описание: A collection of essential writings from the iconic foremother of Black women's intellectual history, feminism, and activism, who helped pave the way for modern social justice movements like Black Lives Matter and Say Her Name A Penguin Classic The Portable Anna Julia Cooper brings together, for the first time, Anna Julia Cooper's major collection of essays, A Voice from the South, along with several previously unpublished poems, plays, journalism and selected correspondences, including over thirty previously unpublished letters between Anna Julia Cooper and W. E. B. Du Bois. The Portable Anna Julia Cooper will introduce a new generation of readers to an educator, public intellectual, and community activist whose prescient insights and eloquent prose underlie some of the most important developments in modern American intellectual thought and African American social and political activism. Recognized as the iconic foremother of Black women's intellectual history and activism, Cooper (1858-1964) penned one of the most forceful and enduring statements of Black feminist thought to come of out of the nineteenth century. Attention to her work has grown exponentially over the years--her words have been memorialized in the US passport and, in 2009, she was commemorated with a US postal stamp. Cooper's writings on the centrality of Black girls and women to our larger national discourse has proved especially prescient in this moment of Black Lives Matter, Say Her Name, and the recent protests that have shaken the nation.
Описание: The transition between girlhood and womanhood leaves many young women feeling overwhelmed and directionless. The pressure to succeed is immense. So immense that in pushing our young women to succeed, we sometimes forget to teach them how to stay vibrantly alive. While emerging into womanhood, it is far too easy to get swept into abusive relationships. Whether you are from a supportive, healthy family or a dysfunctional family, relationship abuse could show up in your life. The consequences of not ending these relationships early are dire. Fierce Solidarity was written to empower you against the possibility of relationship abuse. You don't have to wait until you have a clear vision of who you want to be or what you want to do to start building power into your life. And you don't have to wait for abuse to show up in your life to start empowering yourself against it. The rally cry of Fierce Solidarity is this: No matter what our story is, we are all worthy and capable of living lives free of abuse. I want to see you thrive. Fierce Solidarity is designed to be a conversation starter. Through real life stories, it covers the warning signs and types of relationship abuse, practical ways to end abusive relationships in early stages, how to be fierce advocates for ourselves and our fellow women, surviving and healing from childhood abuse, making authentic, empowered choices about faith, and how to emerge gracefully into empowered womanhood. You don't have to be afraid as you enter womanhood. You can enlist your whole self in crafting a life in which your gifts and desires have a voice and a purpose. Fierce Solidarity is one light on the path to freedom. -For adolescents and emerging women everywhere.
