reviewed Hine Sight: Black Women and the Re-Construction of American History (Blacks in the Diaspora Series) on March 17, 2014 Hine Sight: Black Women and the Re-Construction of American History (Blacks in the Diaspora Series)
So little documentation has been available on women of color. Darlene Clark Hine began to give voice to women too long silent. This quote in her introduction says it so well ...
"For almost two decades I traveled along two winding paths, Black history and women's history, searching for the intersections where race and gender met, in order to construct a history of Black women."
A compilation of essays developed over time, this book is filled with gems for those of us who grew up in the 60s. She arrived at Kent State the same year I did. It changed both of us.
I end this with a final quote from her Introduction:
"Black women's history compels the individual to come to grips more completely with all of the components of identity. Through the study of Black women it becomes increasingly obvious how historians shape, make or construct history and why we omit, ignore and sometimes distort the lives of people on the margins."
