Produktbeschreibung

While there have been great accomplishments in the
area of women s history as well as education,
Darlene Clark Hine points that black women s
history is just beginning to emerge as a vital area
within women s and Afro American history, and much
work remains to be done. Part of the work
that remains both in the field of human sexuality
as well as Black women s history includes uncovering
the voices of elder women who have been overlooked
and undervalued. This book attempts to fill the
remaining space with accounts of sexuality education
and experiences as told by Black women, thereby
contributing to current sex education literature by
providing a glimpse into sexuality education and its
resulting impact on Black women in the 1920s -
1940s. Moreover this book adds to both Black women s
sexual history and sexuality education in that it
makes visible that which was once invisible. The
oral histories presented here should prove helpful
to Black people, young and old, as well as students,
educators and researchers interested in the history
of sexuality education and/or Women of Color.
