Radiant with intellectual energy, this sequel to But Some of Us Were Brave will be as indispensable to women’s studies scholars of every race, age, ethnicity, and theoretical orientation as its precursor was." Sandra M. Gilbert, author of The Madwoman in the Attic
In short [Still Brave] is courageous, necessary, and exquisitely edited. It is a true testament to the scholar to which it is dedicated.” Melissa Harris-Perry, author of Sister Citizen: Shame, Stereotypes, and Black Women in America
A courageous, beautiful history of global importance. Black feminism and Black Women’s Studies are monumental achievements. Still Brave shows why.” Catharine R. Stimpson, author of Where the Meanings Are: Feminism and Cultural Spaces
