- Description
- Focusing on three early Afro American publications - Ringwood's Afro American Journal of Fashion, Half-Century Magazine for the Colored Homemaker and Tan Confessions -, as well as two contemporary magazines - Essence and O, the Oprah Magazine -, the author reveals their contributions to the development of the Afro American culture over the past century and the ways in which they in turn reflect historical changes in the black community.
