Book Description
FINER WOMEN is about the lives of women who worked towards building the name of Zeta Phi Beta Sorority by coalescing around the ideals of scholarship, service, sisterly love, and finer womanhood. In an age where few women went to college, FINER WOMEN chronicles the extraordinary lives of African-American women like Nellie Buchanan, a Baltimore teacher whose dedication helped launch the careers of Jazz musician Cab Calloway and Broadway actor and singer Avon Long; and Annie Turnbo Malone, a woman who built a multi-million dollar beauty empire and inspired other women like Madam CJ Walker to become business leaders themselves. This book provides interesting perspectives about the lives of African-American women striving to attain college degrees, provide for their families, and uplift themselves and their communities during the 1920s and 1930s.

Women's Health Advocacy
Author: Jamie White-Farnham
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 0429574967
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 224
Book Description
Women’s Health Advocacy brings together academic studies and personal narratives to demonstrate how women use a variety of arguments, forms of writing, and communication strategies to effect change in a health system that is not only often difficult to participate in, but which can be actively harmful. It explicates the concept of rhetorical ingenuity—the creation of rhetorical means for specific and technical, yet extremely personal, situations. At a time when women’s health concerns are at the center of national debate, this rhetorical ingenuity provides means for women to uncover latent sources of oppression in women’s health and medicine and to influence matters of research, funding, policy, and everyday access to healthcare in the face of exclusion and disenfranchisement. This accessible collection will be inspiring reading for academics and students in health communication, medical humanities, and women’s studies, as well as for activists, patients, and professionals.

Females
Author: Andrea Long Chu
Publisher: Verso Books
ISBN: 1788737393
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 113
Book Description
One of today’s most original thinkers on gender offers a provocative take on the current feminist movement, exploring “desire as the force shaping our identifies, the paradoxes of liberation politics, and her own gender transition” (Bookforum). “[Females] is always smart, sometimes sincere, and unpredictable about when it will pinch your arm or clutch its nails around your heart.” —Vice Everyone is female, and everyone hates it. Females is Andrea Long Chu’s genre-defying investigation into sex and lies, desperate artists and reckless politics, the smothering embrace of gender and the punishing force of desire. Drawing inspiration from a forgotten play by Valerie Solanas—the woman who wrote the SCUM Manifesto and shot Andy Warhol—Chu aims her searing wit and surgical intuition at targets ranging from performance art to psychoanalysis, incels to porn. She even has a few barbs reserved for feminists like herself. Each step of the way, she defends the indefensible claim that femaleness is less a biological state and more a fatal existential condition that afflicts the entire human race—men, women, and everyone else. Or maybe she’s just projecting. A thrilling new voice who has been credited with launching the “second wave” of trans studies, Chu shows readers how to write for your life, baring her innermost self with a morbid sense of humor and a mordant kind of hope.
