- Description
- Onderzoeker bekijkt de zich ontwikkelende Afro-Amerikaanse religieuze cultuur en de opkomst van vrije zwarte gemeenschappen. Ze onderzoekt de relatie tussen ras, cultuur en samenleving. De schrijfster doet dit aan de hand van werken die vier Afro-Amerikaanse vrouwen schreven tussen 1760 en 1863, een periode waarin de Afro-Amerikaanse cultuur vorm begon te krijgen. Het gaat om de dichteressen Phillis Wheatley en Ann Plato, en de kerkelijke voorgangers Jarena Lee en Rebecca Cox Jackson.

- Description
- Among the radical magazines, news sheets, and bulletins that surfaced in the heady climate of the late 1960s, none can compare with the venerable Advocate, rightly described as 'the world's premier chronicle of the lesbian and gay civil rights movement.' In this book Chris Bull compiles dozens of trenchant and timely articles on politics from the magazine's first 32 years, ranging from descriptions of bar raids and early, celebratory coverage of the first openly gay elected officials to some of the first (woefully belated) articles on AIDS and, later, the rise of the religious right.
