Book Synopsis
Using the Agwagune community in southeastern Nigeria as a case study, David Uru Iyam asserts that women are not stereotypically submissive, oppressed, or passive. Though women are often misrepresented in studies that fail to ask about their agency, Iyam highlights the overlooked contributions of women that uphold and change entire social systems.
