Courting Communities: Black Female Nationalism and "Syncre-Nationalism" in the Nineteenth Century

by Kathy Glass

Courting Communities focuses on the writing and oratory of nineteenth-century African-American women whose racial uplift projects troubled the boundaries of race, nation and gender. In particular, it reexamines the politics of gender in nationalist movements and black women's creative response within and against both state and insurgent black nationalist discourses.
