Sisters in the Wilderness – $385
by rgonzalezr
This landmark work in emerging African American “womanist” thought uses the image of Hagar–mother of Ishmael, cast into the wilderness by Abraham and Sarah but protected by God–as a prototype for African American women. Williams sees in the story of Hagar–an African woman, surrogate mother, homeless, exiled–an image of survival and defiance that is appropriate to African American women today.
