Aggies blog about the cultural representation of Black women and the literature they produce. We center the lived experience of the Black woman as represented in literature and the terms and conditions on which she projects her own agency amidst society’s denial of it. We aim to use this place as a site of valuable information, and a space to challenge traditional paradigms about the Black woman’s identity and experience.

Black Feminist Thought
According to Ruth Shays and Annie Adams,” Black
feminist thought, by extension, represents a second level of knowledge; the
more specialized knowledge furnished by experts who are part of a group and who
expresses the group standpoint.” Overall, the significance of the Black
Feminist thought is very important because it’s a way for Black women to be
conscious of the world. Black women are not only able to educate themselves
with their own knowledge, but they are also able to look back at history and
make observations to understand why things are the way they are.
