Bøger af Mary E. Weems

In ''Fall and Response'' Mary Weems writes about Black life from a perspective filtered through a collective cultural lens which moves seamlessly from the personal of love, marriage, motherhood, suicide and loss to the political of poverty, mis-education, police violence... the daily effect of being Black, a woman and a descendant of slaves in a continually racist America which falsely promotes the idea of diversity and inclusion publicly, when what it wants is to conserve a status quo where the majority of Blacks remain on the bottom of the bottom one hundred and fifty-nine years after the official end of slavery.
