Essential Soldiers: Women Activists and Black Power Movement Leadership (Hardcover)
By: Kenja McCray
ISBN: 9781479833047
A new perspective on women’s Black Power leadership legacies
Academics and popular commentors have expressed common sentiments about the Black Power movement of the 1960s and 1970s―that it was male dominated and overrun with autocratic leaders. Yet women’s strategizing, management, and sustained work were integral to movement organizations’ functioning, and female advocates of cultural nationalism often exhibited a unique service-oriented, collaborative leadership style.
