| Summary | Annotation Tabusga C. Ford explores how and why black women in places as far-flung as New York, Atlanta, London, and Johannesburg incorporated style and beauty culture into their activism. Focusing on the emergence of the 'soul style' movement - represented in clothing, jewelry, hairstyles, and more - 'Liberated Threads' shows that black women's fashion choices became galvanizing symbols of gender and political liberation. |
