Patricia Hill Collins' \u003ci\u003eBlack Feminist Thought \u003c\/i\u003ehas become a landmark book and the first to skilfully synthesize the many strands of Black feminist thought into a powerful, coherent argument for social justice.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePatricia 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.
