Book Synopsis

In spite of the double burden of racial and gender discrimination, African-American women have developed a rich intellectual tradition that is not widely known. Patricia Hill Collins's Black Feminist Thought has become a landmark book and the first to skilfully synthesise the many strands of black feminist thought into a powerful, coherent argument for social justice.

Patricia Hill Collins explores the words and ideas of Black feminist intellectuals and writers, both within the academy and without, providing a rich interpretive framework for the work of such prominent Black feminist thinkers as Angela Davis, bell hooks, Alice Walker, and Audre Lorde. Drawing from fiction, poetry, music and oral history, the result is a brilliantly crafted and revolutionary book whose message is as important today as upon its first publication.

This 2026 Routledge Classics edition includes a new Preface by the author, replacing the Preface and the Epilogue of the Thirtieth Anniversary edition.
