Her presence is everywhere.Black Women For Beginnerschronicles 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 terms,Black Women For Beginnerswhimsically details the influence of stereotypes on the portrayal of Black Women in various venues and punctuates the absurd.
