Black women living in the French empire played a key role in the decolonial movements of the mid-twentieth century. Thinkers and activists, these women lived lives of commitment and risk that landed them in war zones and concentration camps and saw them declared enemies of the state. Annette K. Joseph-Gabriel mines published writings and untapped archives to reveal the anticolonialist endeavors of seven women. Though often overlooked today, Suzanne CÉsaire, Paulette Nardal, EugÉnie ÉbouÉ-Tell, Jane Vialle, AndrÉe Blouin, Aoua KÉita, and Eslanda Robeson took part in a forceful transnational movement. Their activism and thought challenged France's imperial system by shaping forms of citizenship that encouraged multiple cultural and racial identities. Expanding the possibilities of belonging beyond national and even Francophone borders, these women imagined new pan-African and pan-Caribbean identities informed by black feminist intellectual frameworks and practices. The visions they articulated also shifted the idea of citizenship itself, replacing a single form of collective identity and political participation with an expansive plurality of forms of belonging.

The first scholarly collection devoted to Shirley Graham Du Bois and her legacy as an artist and activistShirley Graham Du Bois centers her cultural, intellectual, and political significance as a Black radical woman during the twentieth century. The volume traces Graham Du Bois's travels across the United States and around the world to places like France, Ghana, Egypt, China, and Russia. Contributors not only chronicle her creativity as a theatrical composer, novelist, journalist, and public intellectual but also present the wide range of her political impact as a civil rights and radical peace activist, international feminist, Black nationalist, socialist, and Pan-Africanist.While prevailing accounts of Graham Du Bois's life often emphasize her significance in relation to the prominent men with whom she associated, including her husband W.E.B. Du Bois, the essays in this volume engage with her thought on her own terms and in her own voice. Contributors examine how African and African American culture infused her artistry as a musician, dramatist, editor, and author of historical biographies; and they analyze how her creative intellect shaped the evolution of her expansive, radical political commitments across the global Black freedom struggle.The first scholarly collection devoted to Shirley Graham Du Bois, the book explores key moments in her life, revealing the critical importance of her endeavors as an artist, her efforts as an activist, and her productivity as an author across the African Diaspora. Taken together, the essays highlight the Black radical legacy of liberation that Shirley Graham Du Bois left behind while underscoring the vitality of her international voice in freedom movements of Black and oppressed populations across the globe.Contributors: Bettina Aptheker, Whitney Battle-Baptiste, Lauren Eglen, Mjiba Frehiwot, Tsitsi Jaji, Annette K.
