Why read it?
1 author picked Re-Imagining Black Women as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
This is a brilliant book about race, gender, and politics in the United States. While there is a lot of work on racial inequality this book stands out in its focus on the ways in which culture shapes our politics and responses to inequality. It does so by centering Black women. It is also very timely and analyzes the way in which public figures like Michelle Obama and Condoleeza Rice have shaped the American political imagination.
From Leela's list on to understand inequality in a world in crisis.
