SUMMARY:Black Women Taught Us
DESCRIPTION:About the Event \nJenn M. Jackson–abolitionist\, organizer\, writer\, and professor–will be at Buffalo Street Books with local leaders Shacoya Kidwell and Dr. Nia Nunn to discuss their new book\, Black Women Taught Us. \nAbout the Author \nJenn M. Jackson (they/them) is a genderflux androgynous Black woman\, a lesbian\, an abolitionist\, a lover of all Black people\, and an Assistant Professor at Syracuse University in the Department of Political Science.\nJackson’s primary research is in Black Politics with a focus on racial threat and trauma\, gender and sexuality\, political behavior\, and social movements. Jackson also holds affiliate positions in African American Studies\, Women’s and Gender Studies\, and LGBT Studies. They are a Senior Research Associate at The Campbell Public Affairs Institute at the Maxwell School at Syracuse University\, as well. \nAbout the Book \nThis is my offering. My love letter to them\, and to us. \nJenn M. Jackson\, PhD\, has been known to bring historical acuity to some of the most controversial topics in America today. Now\, in their first book\, Jackson applies their critical analysis to the questions that have long energized their work: Why has Black women’s freedom fighting been so overlooked throughout history\, and what has our society lost because of our refusal to engage with our forestrugglers’ lessons? \nA love letter to those who have been minimized and forgotten\, this collection repositions Black women’s intellectual and political work at the center of today’s liberation movements. \nAcross eleven original essays that explore the legacy of Black women writers and leaders–from Harriet Jacobs and Ida B. Wells to the Combahee River Collective and Audre Lorde–Jackson sets the record straight about Black women’s longtime movement organizing\, theorizing\, and coalition building in the name of racial\, gender\, and sexual justice in the United States and abroad. These essays show\, in both critical and deeply personal terms\, how Black women have been at the center of modern liberation movements despite the erasure and misrecognition of their efforts. Jackson illustrates how Black women have frequently done the work of liberation at great risk to their lives and livelihoods. \nFor a new generation of movement organizers and co-strugglers\, Black Women Taught Us serves as a reminder that Black women were the first ones to teach us how to fight racism\, how to name that fight\, and how to imagine a more just world for everyone.
