How We Get Free Published 2017 by: Haymarket Books introduced by: Keeange-Yamahatta Taylor Speaks about black women feminist fighting for liberation of racial equality and black female oppression since 1974. She speaks of black women being extremely oppressed by and having a negative relation between American political system. She points out many factors that still is a problem today. Women face sexual oppression on a day-to-day basis and cannot escape that bias mentality in majority of men. We face it at home with our spouses, and at work with our colleges.
Black women under political rule and oppression have been a reminder of racial and black female inequality for centuries. Black feminist leader gain not attention nor respect from our own government. Black women face the oppression of slavery but, also face oppression of being a black women period. She writes that for years black feminist faced difficult times of pain and defeat. Through it all we must understand the fight is never over. Women must have a voice gain what we want and so much deserve.
