Description

Tiffany Caesar's empowering work highlights the contributions of six extraordinary Black women educators who have contributed to African-Centered Institutions.
In this book, Caesar seeks to empower people of African descent within the U.S. and abroad by focusing on solutions created by Africana women as it concerns colonial educational structures. While most books on Black women and the archives focus more on the slave trade, Caesar brings a fresh and new perspective by discussing the 21st century Black woman and the necessity to archive their experiences. She brings together multiple theories and methodologies to enhance the experience and understanding of six Black women educators (three from Detroit and three from Johanessburg) who have either developed or contributed significantly to an African-Centered Institutions. Topics in the book include Womanism, Mothering, Pan-Africanism, Portraiture Methodology, and Black Emancipatory Action Research.
