Black Women Taught Us: An Intimate History of Black Feminism by Jenn M. Jackson

challenging informative reflective medium-paced

5.0

This was such a powerful read that challenged the way I view the world especially sexuality and community. I really appreciate the author spotlighting some of the harmless that happens in our community.. This author had me reflecting on my childhood as a black girl and some of the women in my life. Some of the women she mention in this book I will be reading more books about I feel so bad that I never heard of them until this book. I am so happy I got a chance to read this book because I will be learning more about women like Audre Lorde and Ida B. Bells. This book was such a beautiful  representation on how we should discuss black women writes and leaders.. I love the fact that this author talks about the women in her life and the impact they have in her life.. The things she shared about her grandmother is something that I can really relate to in my life.
