The first major anthology to trace the development; from the early 1800s to the present; of black feminist thought in the United States; Words of Fire is Beverly Guy-Sheftall’s comprehensive collection of writings; in the feminist tradition; of more than sixty African American women. From the pioneering work of abolitionist Maria Miller Stewart and anti-lynching crusader Ida Wells-Barnett to the writings of contemporary feminist critics Michele Wallace and bell hooks; black women have been writing about the multiple jeopardies—racism; sexism; and classicm—that have made it imperative for them to forge a brand of feminism uniquely their own.
