Description
Southall Black Sisters: A Radical Asian Women's Group The Southall Black Sisters have become synonymous with black British feminism and activism. Since their establishment in 1979, they have developed a national and international reputation for tackling high-profile issues such as domestic violence, immigration rights, and the dangers posed by religious fundamentalism. This important anthology makes connections between race, gender, and class, shedding light on a neglected area of current feminist debate. The book offers a provocative argument about the dynamics of power and relationships between marginalized groups and the state. It is an essential read for anyone seeking to understand the complex interplay between social disempowerment and the state, as well as the balance of power between men and women.
