Yanick St Jean, Joe R Feagin

Double Burden

Black Women and Everyday Racism

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Departing from conventional studies of black women, which characterize them as domineering matriarchs, prostitutes and welfare queens, this text uses the concept of a "collective memory" to show how black women cope with and interpret lives often pervaded with racial barriers not of their making.
