From Black Power to Hip Hop: Racism, Nationalism, and Feminism Reviews


  • Sara Salem

    Patricia Hill Collins is just amazing.

  • Ietrio

    Black Power wasn't about Feminism. Quite the opposite.

    Hip Hop isn't about Feminism. Quite the opposite.

    Never mind, Collins has a book to sell, and buzz words are relevant.

  • Amy Do

    Amazing book about the complexities and relationship between nationalism, racism and feminism in the USA. Whether the reader has little background in social justice issues or is an academic in the field, the book offers interesting insights into race and gender issues that women of colour have to face. Patricia Hill Collins criticizes the shortcomings of social movements in the USA and explain the extent to which these movements have benefited or negatively affected women of colour. This is my first time reading Patricia Hill Collins and I wish I had read her books sooner.

    Just attended a really great event on this same topic...it definitely reawakened my desire to study this kind of thing more...

  • Denise Donnelly

    Not as good as the previous ones. Much more theoretical, and the essays didn't always tie together well. Still, I learned a lot.

  • Dash Williams

  • Amy

    really nothing you haven't heard if you've read any of her other books.
