Black Women's Rights

Leadership and the Circularities of Power

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book studies the manifestation of leadership as expressed, narrativized, and represented by women of African descent. It uses the language of "rights" and "power" to assert that Black women find strategic alternatives to the male-dominated leadership status quo and are the leaders of the future.
