- Description
- The essays in this book of southern history address the experiences of white and non-white women. Among the subjects covered are black women's suffrage: female kin and female slaves in planters' wills: the northern myth of the rebel girl: second wave feminism in the South: and southern lesbians. Bringing to light the lives of Cherokee women, Appalachian 'coal daughters', and Jewish women in the South, the essays ensure that monolithic representations of southern womanhood are a thing of the past.

- Description
- Artist and educator Ria Brodell researched the lives of people worldwide who didn't conform to gender norms, from the fifteenth through the twentieth centuries. In this book she offers twenty-eight portraits of forgotten individuals who were assigned female at birth but whose gender presentation was more masculine than feminine, who did not want to enter into heterosexual marriage, and who often faced punishments for being themselves. Each portrait is accompanied by a biographical note. The paintings are modeled on Catholic holy cards, this way subverting a religious template.
