Description
Negritude Feminisms: Black Women Writers and Activists reframes debates about the participation and conversation of black women writers in the Negritude movement. The author uses the Negritude movement as a model to highlight its capacities and limits. Through an intergenerational analysis of the writings and personal experiences of Paulette Nardal and Suzanne Césaire from Martinique, Annette Mbaye d'Erneville and Aminata Sow Fall from Senegal, this book charts common themes of racial consciousness, gender issues and decolonial strategies developed by these women. Their efforts were centered on how negritude could be a tool for change, celebration and a call for solidarity within the black community which Nardal, Césaire, Mbaye d'Erneville and Sow Fall undertook through their writings and activism. Ultimately, Negritude Feminisms reclaims black women's voices by unveiling their writings and experiences to reveal a consciousness about such pressing contemporary issues as the colonial problem, gender issues, women and education, women and politics and the place of francophone black women in the world.
