BLACK!Feminist!FREE - Beverly Guy-Sheftall

BLACK!Feminist!FREE! gathers Beverly Guy-Sheftall's most influential essays, public speeches, and interviews into a single volume, offering readers access to the depth and range of her contributions. 

From early reflections on the intersections of race, gender, and class, to her contemporary analyses of sexuality, reproductive justice, and global black feminist solidarity, the collection testifies to her enduring commitment to liberation for all oppressed people. 

In these writings, Guy-Sheftall brings a sharp intellect and unapologetic clarity to issues that remain urgent today: the silencing of black women in political movements, the cultural policing of black female sexuality, the failures of U.S. policy to address systemic violence, and the transformative potential of intersectional coalitions. Her voice is both scholarly and insurgent, illuminating the possibilities of a feminism rooted in black women's experiences.
