Spaces for Resistance:

Black Feminist Theory and Praxis in Academia and Beyond

Using autoethnography, this book answers the Black feminist call to talk back to systems of oppression and highlight agency and resistance of Black women. Editors Geniece Crawford Mondé and Ebonie Cunningham Stringer explore the varied ways in which Black feminism is understood, applied, and expressed across disciplinary backgrounds. Drawing from the perspectives of both academics and scholar-practitioners, they examine how these paradigms bear relevance on timely issues, like socially-engaged scholarship, work-life balance, and navigating challenging social, academic, and political contexts.
