Women Against Racism records, 1982-1984

""All the Women Are White, All the Blacks Are Men, But Some of Us Are Brave""

All the Women Are White, All the Blacks Are Men, But Some of Us Are Brave 

Political theory, literacy, social and historical essays, bibliographies, syllabi --- here for the first time are the materials needed to develop courses and course units on the lives of black women.

"Everything that human beings participate in is ultimately subjective and biased, and there is nothing inherently wrong with that.  The bias of black women's studies must consider as primary the knowledge that will save black women's lives."
                                -from the introduction 

But Some of Us Are Brave 
includes notes on studying slavery, representative issues in the social sciences, black women's health, black women and the church, black women novelists, poets, playwrights and composers, plus the politics of black women's studies, black feminism, racism in  the women's movement, and much more!

Black Women's Studies:
"Exciting! Affirmations and the beginning of a new era, where the "women" in women's studies will no longer mean 'white'."  
                                -Andre Londe

"This is 'necessary bread' for women of all colors.  The essays contain not only fact and durable resources, but some of the best writing I've seen around."
                            -Adrienne Rich


"A clear statement about black women.  Congratulations to the editors for compiling such a fine interdisciplinary volume." 
                             -Gelinda R. Sanders
               Jackson State University Ph.D.
