“I suggest that Black feminist thought consists of specialised knowledge created by African-American women which clarifies a standpoint of and for Black women. In other words, Black feminist thought encompasses theoretical interpretations of Black women's reality by those who live it.” RealityBlackFeministAfrican AmericanInterpretationBlack WomenTheoreticalStandpointAmerican WomanAfrican American WomenBlack Feminist Author:Patricia Hill Collins
“The potential significance of Black feminist thought goes far beyond demonstrating that African-American women can be theorists. Like Black feminist practice, which it reflects and which it seeks to foster, Black feminist thought can create a collective identity among African-American women about the dimensions of a Black women's standpoint. Through the process of rearticulating, Black feminist thought can offer African-American women a different view of ourselves and our worlds” WorldDifferentProcessBlackViewsPracticeIdentityOffersFeministAfrican AmericanDimensionsCollectivesSignificanceOur WorldBlack WomenStandpointDemonstratingAmerican WomanTheoristsAfrican American WomenDifferent ViewsBlack Feminist Author:Patricia Hill Collins
