- Description
- This book explores what exercises of sexual citizenship look like, particularly their manifestations through the trope of transgressive behavior, in post-1960s black women's texts. The book's title is taken from Shirley Chisholm's 1968 congressional campaign slogan, ‘Unbought and Unbossed', and her 1970 autobiography.
