Book The Promise of Patriarchy

Download or read book The Promise of Patriarchy written by Ula Yvette Taylor and published by UNC Press Books. This book was released on 2017-09-05 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The patriarchal structure of the Nation of Islam (NOI) promised black women the prospect of finding a provider and a protector among the organization's men, who were fiercely committed to these masculine roles. Black women's experience in the NOI, however, has largely remained on the periphery of scholarship. Here, Ula Taylor documents their struggle to escape the devaluation of black womanhood while also clinging to the empowering promises of patriarchy. Taylor shows how, despite being relegated to a lifestyle that did not encourage working outside of the home, NOI women found freedom in being able to bypass the degrading experiences connected to labor performed largely by working-class black women and in raising and educating their children in racially affirming environments. Telling the stories of women like Clara Poole (wife of Elijah Muhammad) and Burnsteen Sharrieff (secretary to W. D. Fard, founder of the Allah Temple of Islam), Taylor offers a compelling narrative that explains how their decision to join a homegrown, male-controlled Islamic movement was a complicated act of self-preservation and self-love in Jim Crow America.

  • Pages : 207 pages

Download or read book Al Ula Wall written by Mohammed Mosa Abdulwahed and published by Partridge Publishing Singapore. This book was released on 2022-06-30 with total page 207 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “With Allah’ Blessing, the people of Al Ula Built the Wall “; with this historical phrase (which was written on the wall that built by the people of Al Ula), I start the intro of this book that is a part of series of historical works I am releasing about the people of Al Ula. In this book, I am going to shed light on the period of the building of the wall called the Sab’aa wall (the seven wall), which extends from Al Ula’s western mountain slope. The people of Al Ula built it throughout a crucial period of their village’s history: protect the village from a probable assault by Mouhammed Al Rasheed’s army. I made sure to refer back to several ancient and available sources that talked about that period. For example, the writings of orientalists, the sources written on the history of the Al Rasheed’s emirate, the historical documents of the people of Al Ula, and the Ottoman records besides interviewing the elders of Al Ula to convey the anecdotal stories that talk about the reason for building the wall. Furthermore, the available photos are an essential role to enrich the matter and exhibit the historical and technical profiles of the project. The vernacular poetry, moreover, considers as a historical source that helps to illustrate the real image, where this poetry addressed some poems about that period (they talked about the prevailing political, security, and economic circumstances). An effort was made to list the information using the same historical evidence without exaggeration in order to convey correct information to the reader based on documented references. In addition, efforts were made to correct some inaccurate stories and myths about this important historical landmark in the beautiful city of Al Ula. The people of Al Ula as a term means the community of Al Ula and the villages that are around it. They are the people of civilization, history, and ancient cultural and social heritage; they are people of generosity and hospitability that honor their guests regardless of their nationalities, colors, or religions. Everyone who visited or passed by this area described its people as with their generosity and honesty.

Book Sapphic Crossings

  • Author : Ula Lukszo Klein
  • Publisher : University of Virginia Press
  • Release : 2021-02-04
  • ISBN : 0813945526
  • Pages : 279 pages

Download or read book Sapphic Crossings written by Ula Lukszo Klein and published by University of Virginia Press. This book was released on 2021-02-04 with total page 279 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Across the eighteenth century in Britain, readers, writers, and theater-goers were fascinated by women who dressed in men’s clothing—from actresses on stage who showed their shapely legs to advantage in men’s breeches to stories of valiant female soldiers and ruthless female pirates. Spanning genres from plays, novels, and poetry to pamphlets and broadsides, the cross-dressing woman came to signal more than female independence or unconventional behaviors; she also came to signal an investment in female same-sex intimacies and sapphic desires. Sapphic Crossings reveals how various British texts from the period associate female cross-dressing with the exciting possibility of intimate, embodied same-sex relationships. Ula Lukszo Klein reconsiders the role of lesbian desires and their structuring through cross-gender embodiments as crucial not only to the history of sexuality but to the rise of modern concepts of gender, sexuality, and desire. She prompts readers to rethink the roots of lesbianism and transgender identities today and introduces new ways of thinking about embodied sexuality in the past.

Book The Veiled Garvey

  • Publisher : Univ of North Carolina Press
  • Release : 2003-10-16
  • ISBN : 0807862290
  • Pages : 325 pages

Download or read book The Veiled Garvey written by Ula Yvette Taylor and published by Univ of North Carolina Press. This book was released on 2003-10-16 with total page 325 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this biography, Ula Taylor explores the life and ideas of one of the most important, if largely unsung, Pan-African freedom fighters of the twentieth century: Amy Jacques Garvey (1895-1973). Born in Jamaica, Amy Jacques moved in 1917 to Harlem, where she became involved in the Universal Negro Improvement Association (UNIA), the largest Pan-African organization of its time. She served as the private secretary of UNIA leader Marcus Garvey; in 1922, they married. Soon after, she began to give speeches and to publish editorials urging black women to participate in the Pan-African movement and addressing issues that affected people of African descent across the globe. After her husband's death in 1940, Jacques Garvey emerged as a gifted organizer for the Pan-African cause. Although she faced considerable male chauvinism, she persisted in creating a distinctive feminist voice within the movement. In her final decades, Jacques Garvey constructed a thriving network of Pan-African contacts, including Nnamdi Azikiwe, Kwame Nkrumah, George Padmore, and W. E. B. Du Bois. Taylor examines the many roles Jacques Garvey played throughout her life, as feminist, black nationalist, journalist, daughter, mother, and wife. Tracing her political and intellectual evolution, the book illuminates the leadership and enduring influence of this remarkable activist.
