"BLACK WOMEN FOR BEGINNERS Chronicles
the trials and triumphs of Black Women from antiquity to the present, reflecting with wit
and humor the challenges they have faced and the fortitude and strength that have
sustained Black Women and patterned history with a diversity of excellence. As warriors,
healers, teachers, mothers, queens, and liberators Black Women have had tremendous impact
on issues from food to fashion, from politics to poetry. Replete with a glossary of
reference items, BLACK WOMEN FOR BEGINNERS whimsically details the influence of
stereotypes on the portrayal of Black Women in various venues and punctuates the absurd
with contrbutions by Women such as suffragette Mary Church Terrell and astronaut Mae
Jemison."
