  • Publisher : New Directions Publishing
  • Release : 2015-07-07
  • ISBN : 081122323X
  • Pages : 156 pages

Download or read book Oreo written by Fran Ross and published by New Directions Publishing. This book was released on 2015-07-07 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A pioneering, dazzling satire about a biracial black girl from Philadelphia searching for her Jewish father in New York City Oreo is raised by her maternal grandparents in Philadelphia. Her black mother tours with a theatrical troupe, and her Jewish deadbeat dad disappeared when she was an infant, leaving behind a mysterious note that triggers her quest to find him. What ensues is a playful, modernized parody of the classical odyssey of Theseus with a feminist twist, immersed in seventies pop culture, and mixing standard English, black vernacular, and Yiddish with wisecracking aplomb. Oreo, our young hero, navigates the labyrinth of sound studios and brothels and subway tunnels in Manhattan, seeking to claim her birthright while unwittingly experiencing and triggering a mythic journey of self-discovery like no other.

Book Women  Race    Class

Download or read book Women Race Class written by Angela Y. Davis and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2011-06-29 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From one of our most important scholars and civil rights activist icon, a powerful study of the women’s liberation movement and the tangled knot of oppression facing Black women. “Angela Davis is herself a woman of undeniable courage. She should be heard.”—The New York Times Angela Davis provides a powerful history of the social and political influence of whiteness and elitism in feminism, from abolitionist days to the present, and demonstrates how the racist and classist biases of its leaders inevitably hampered any collective ambitions. While Black women were aided by some activists like Sarah and Angelina Grimke and the suffrage cause found unwavering support in Frederick Douglass, many women played on the fears of white supremacists for political gain rather than take an intersectional approach to liberation. Here, Davis not only contextualizes the legacy and pitfalls of civil and women’s rights activists, but also discusses Communist women, the murder of Emmitt Till, and Margaret Sanger’s racism. Davis shows readers how the inequalities between Black and white women influence the contemporary issues of rape, reproductive freedom, housework and child care in this bold and indispensable work.

Book Woman in the Past  Present and Future  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Woman in the Past Present and Future Classic Reprint written by August Bebel and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-17 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Woman in the Past, Present and Future The possession of wife and children taught primaeval man to regard a fixed abode as desirable. Hitherto he had ranged through the woods, sleeping by night on trees or in caves, when not driven away by wild beasts. Now he built himself a hut, to which he returned after hunting and fishing. The division of labor began. The man hunted, fished and fought, the woman did the housework, if the expression may be applied to this primitive age. The uncertain returns of the chase, the inclemency of the seasons, forced the family, when it increased in numbers, to tame animals and use their milk and flesh for nourishment. The hunter became a herdsman. The children grew up, intermarried (the conception of incest belongs to a very much later period), and thus gave rise successively to the patriarchal family, the village community, the tribe'r The tribe became divided into many smaller tribes, which, when their numbers increased, quarreled with each other about pasture land. This quarrel for pasture land, the desire to remain in a fruitful and pleasant district, in spite of a thickening population, was the origin of agriculture.
