- Description
- The author examines the question of how women of color experience feminism, and how race and socioeconomics can alter this experience. She discusses the intersectional nature of being a woman of color and a feminist, based on profiles of historical women of color (including Hottentot Venus, Josefa Loaiza, and Anna Mae Pictou-Aquash) and also by reflecting on her own experiences in academia. The topics include sexuality, social movements and activism, violence, reproductive rights, popular culture, identities and love.

- Description
- In this publication, the author mines the archive of the term ‘women’s liberation’, how it has been represented and remembered. She refocuses debates about the movement’s history and influence. Rather than interpreting women's liberation in terms of success or failure, she approaches the movement as a range of rhetorical strategies that were used to persuade and enact a new political constituency and, ultimately, to bring a new world into being. Based on readings of memories, films, and media texts.

- Description
- Examination of gothic heroines of Hollywood cinema and their meanings in film noir and the female gothic film. The author describes the ways in which the films represented women in the American film industry and culture of the 1940s and their revival in neo-noir and neo-gothic films from the 1980s to the present. She also places the female figures of the femme fatale, female investigator and gothic heroine within the contexts of the film industry and debates in feminist film criticism. She describes diferent female figures, representations and actions in film noir and the female gothic film, and argues that these women are part of a negotiation of female identities, desires and roles.

Included are themes as class and sexual politics in domestic and professional music making, the sequestration of female musical performance, the lament, gender identity through performance, and women singers as empowered voices of the people.
