Haley takes stories of incarcerated Black women during Jim Crow and puts them into contexts of racialized gendered ideology to show how little change had been materially enacted since the fall of slavery, even as the way for modernity was literally being paved by these incarcerated women. Haley does an amazing job of weaving together historical sources with theoretical concepts done by other scholars--like damn if this is possible for a history book why can't historians write more like this!!!!! (I know why, but like ugh.) It's such a good, important book that any white feminist needs to read. ( ) keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen

"In the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries imprisoned black women faced wrenching forms of gendered racial terror and heinous structures of economic exploitation. Exposed to violence and rape, subjugated on chain gangs and as convict laborers, and forced to serve additional time as domestic workers before they were allowed their freedom, black women faced a pitiless system of violence, terror, and debasement. Drawing upon black feminist criticism and a diverse array of archival materials, Sarah Haley uncovers imprisoned women's brutalization in local, county, and state convict labor systems, while also illuminating the prisoners' acts of resistance and sabotage, challenging ideologies of racial capitalism and patriarchy and offering alternative conceptions of social and political life"-- Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |
