Black Women Talk Politics, Gebunden

Klappentext

Introduces an innovative, community-based model for producing knowledge and assessing scholarly impact in and beyond the field of politics.

Black Women Talk Politics models and makes a case for new ways of generating knowledge and measuring impact in political science and academia writ large. Based on thirty-two oral histories conducted between established and emerging scholars during the historic first conference of the Association for the Study of Black Women in Politics in 2016, the volume brings together multiple generations and genres, including intellectual biographies, bibliographies, discussion questions, lectures, and photographs. The book foregrounds oral history as not only a method of research and assessment but also a movement rooted in the lives of Black women researchers and the communities they work with and for. Black Women Talk Politics is an essential resource for all Black social scientists dedicated to building community.
