Between the devil and the deep blue sea.

Between the devil and the deep blue sea.

So I like to read....ha-ha, just a little joke there. Actually, books are a security blanket for me. I read them, I collect them, I have notebooks filled with book titles that I would one day like to read and own. Anything with words, I find myself reading it. There is an actual name for my ailment, but I cannot think of it right now. Even...more »

    Hello dear member of the Black Feminist/Womanist Literature group! It's J., the admin., and I'm writing to inform you of the group's new look! (And it goes beyond the change in our group picture, though it is nice, don't you agree?) :) What we're discussing now: Patricia Hill Collins' Black Feminist Thought, Toni Morrison's Sula for our July read, our little BIG Read: 7 short stories in 7 days to begin later this month, the National Black Arts Festival where Alice Walker and Pearl Cleage are featured speakers, and more!

    We'll soon have a group blog up and running, will begin profiling the uberly dynamic authors within our own group, discussing women's/girls action coalitions in your city, reviving some of our good ol' threads, etc.

    I challenge everyone to invite at least one friend (already a member of shelfari or otherwise) to join the Black Feminist/Womanist Literature group and to log in at least bi-weekly. (Though weekly would be wonderful!) And I pledge to do the same.

    And did you know that Toni Morrison's new novel, A Mercy, is due to be released in November? Ah, you would if you'd visited our group page! (No, actually, I haven't posted this information. lol) But do stop by and fall into the purple haze that is extraordinary literature by feminists of color!

    Love, Jaya

    Hi Between,
    Am I still your only friend? That's sad.

    Diane Arbus is my hero. That was the first photography book I ever looked at.
