Toni Pressley-Sanon offers rich opening and closing chapters about the emergence of Black Buddhism as part of a long history of Black liberation in the U.S. and elsewhere in the world. The heart of the book is six chapters that profile the life stories of the teachers, with a particular focus on the themes that emerge from their autobiographical writings. Interweaving scholarly research with personal reflection as well as input from most of the teachers profiled, Pressley-Sanon's book embodies the growing sense of fruitful encounter between Buddhism, feminism or womanism, and Black liberation"-- $c Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references (pages 255-294) and index. 650 0 $a Women in Buddhism. 650 0 $a Women $x Buddhism. $x Buddhism. 650 0 $a Buddhist women $v Biography. 650 6 $a Femmes dans le bouddhisme. 650 6 $a Femmes $x Bouddhisme. $x Bouddhisme. 650 6 $a Femmes bouddhistes $v Biographies. 650 7 $a Buddhist women $2 fast 650 7 $a Women in Buddhism $2 fast 650 7 $a Women $x Buddhism $x Buddhism $2 fast 655 7 $a Biographies $2 fast 941 $a 1 952 $l UQAX771 $d 20240529010214.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=CD0AAB661D8011EFA6667B3325ECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b JIDInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
