Black Feminist Anthropology: Theory, Politics, Praxis and Poetics is a groundbreaking collection that centers the imaginative intellectual perspectives, voices, and experiences of Black American feminist anthropologists. Twenty-five years ago, as the Foreword states, this book dared to put three words together in the title-Black. Feminist. Anthropology- "that have not always kept company with each other-and in the minds of many both in and outside of the academy, they should remain separate." Standing the test of time, it is still a bold reimagining of anthropology, and all social sciences, as inclusive and decolonized, while establishing a new Black feminist anthropology canon that decades later is too often taken for granted as normative. Black Feminist Anthropology is filled with a message of theoretical possibilities that anyone who enters its pages will find "healing," "life-saving," and an affirmation that Black women anthropologists have contributed much to the theory, politics, praxis and poetics of anthropology, gender and women's studies, masculinity studies, queer studies, the social sciences generally, and any other discipline that seeks transformation from the inside out. It is both an archive and a legacy for the next generation.
