Eschewing the Great Race Man paradigm so prominent in contemporary discourse, Brittney C. Cooper looks at the far-reaching intellectual achievements of female thinkers and activists like Anna Julia Cooper, Mary Church Terrell, Fannie Barrier Williams, Pauli Murray, and Toni Cade Bambara. Cooper delves into the processes that transformed these women and others into racial leadership figures, including long-overdue discussions of their theoretical output and personal experiences. As Cooper shows, their body of work critically reshaped our understandings of race and gender discourse. It also confronted entrenched ideas of how - and who - produced racial knowledge. 610 20 $a National Association of Colored Women (U.S.) 600 10 $a Terrell, Mary Church, $d 1863-1954. 600 10 $a Murray, Pauli, $d 1910-1985. 650 0 $a African American women $x Intellectual life $y 19th century. 650 0 $a African American women $x Intellectual life $y 20th century. 650 0 $a African American women $v Biography. 650 0 $a African American intellectuals $v Biography. 776 08 $i Online version: $a Cooper, Brittney C., 1980- $t Beyond respectability. $d Urbana, IL : University of Illinois Press, [2017] $z 9780252099540 830 0 $a Women, gender, and sexuality in American history. 941 $a 3 952 $l PQAX094 $d 20231214014858.0 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231020013743.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20190402021000.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=4494156A475911E7B35354A3DAD10320 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
