ABSTRACT
Most of the contributions to Black feminist anthropology are explicit about how their present-day thinking was forged out of a tradition of Black American resistance rooted in the politics, praxis, and poetics of runaway slaves, slave rebellions, Maroons, the underground railroad, slave narratives, Negro spirituals, anti-lynching campaigns, the Civil Rights movement, black organizations, the Black nationalist movement, the Black aesthetic, and most recently, reggae and consciousness hip-hop.
