Journeys of a Wombman
Author: Ka'lynn Youngblood

ISBN: 9781548094560

Languages : en
Pages : 106
Book Description
A wombman is not a term assigned to only women who've given birth. You can be taken back to the womb by doulaship, by death of a loved one, or by your own meditation of going back to your biological roots. This is the documentation of a struggle being overcome, the rural challenges a mother faces and the grace she defeats them with. We are no longer bound to the societal restrictions in the past. This is the uprising; the rewriting of her story. We are the seeds of the ancestors who didn't die. The journey never ends. Every step is a victory in itself.

Women Pulitzer Playwrights
Author: Carolyn Casey Craig
Publisher: McFarland
ISBN: 0786418818
Category : Performing Arts
Languages : en
Pages : 348
Book Description
In the first century of the coveted Pulitzer Prizes, only 11 women have won the prize for drama: Zona Gale (1921), Susan Glaspell (1931), Zoe Akins (1935), Mary Coyle Chase (1945), Ketti Frings (1958), Beth Henley (1981), Marsha Norma (1983), Wendy Wasserstein (1989), Paula Vogel (1998), Margaret Edson (1999), and Suzan-Lori Parks (2002). This book is about them and their landmark plays, beginning with Gale's Miss Lulu Bett, which championed the unmarried woman forced to work in the home of a married relative, and closing with Parks' controversial Topdog/Underdog, which made her the first black woman to win the prize. Drawn from personal interviews with the playwrights and research from archives and unpublished material, this work shows how the stage art of women has reflected life in the American family and traces a strong thread of feminist history in our culture. Overview chapters set the stage for each playwright and play with sketches of the time period, highlighting the major points of women's experiences in culture, society and the family. Other chapters analyze each play in detail and discuss the playwright's life and opinions. The book also includes a quick history of the Pulitzer Prize and a chapter honoring black female playwrights.

Beyond the Black Lady
Author: Lisa B. Thompson
Publisher: University of Illinois Press
ISBN: 0252056396
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 135
Book Description
In this book, Lisa B. Thompson explores the representation of black middle-class female sexuality by African American women authors in narrative literature, drama, film, and popular culture, showing how these depictions reclaim black female agency and illustrate the difficulties black women confront in asserting sexual agency in the public sphere. Thompson broadens the discourse around black female sexuality by offering an alternate reading of the overly determined racial and sexual script that casts the middle class "black lady" as the bastion of African American propriety. Drawing on the work of black feminist theorists, she examines symptomatic autobiographies, novels, plays, and key episodes in contemporary American popular culture, including works by Anita Hill, Judith Alexa Jackson, P. J. Gibson, Julie Dash, Kasi Lemmons, Jill Nelson, Lorene Cary, and Andrea Lee.
