A compelling analysis of the role American Black women have played in consumerism and popular culture, focusing on the 1960s to now. Business Insider
Important and accessible, Dr. Hallidays latest book expertly examines Black women as cultural producers and consumers and their subsequent, undeniable influence on popular culture. Ms. Magazine
Buy Black offers an important and well-argued consideration of the Black women cultural producers who, in an effort to subvert a misogynoiristic system, sometimes traffic in the very stereotypical practices they wish to upend. Hallidays concept of embodied objectification helps to make clear our own investments in consumer capitalism and prompts us to be more circumspect about our participation as a means to some ultimately unsatisfying end.Moya Bailey, author of Misogynoir Transformed: Black Womens Digital Resistance
