Feminist Views of the Social Sciences

Among the many achievements of the feminist movement of the 1970s was the unprecedented influx of women into academia. Over the last 25 years, women have entered the social sciences in huge numbers - bringing with them new perspectives and new insights into the social world.
This special issue of The Annals reflects on this multivocal, richly textured, and dynamic revolution. From anthropology to psychology to geography to criminology and more, leading feminists reflect on the most significant contributions of feminist activism and feminist research to their fields. Two main themes run through this volume: the relationship between feminist scholarship and feminist activism, and the enduring controversies and future direction of feminist social science.
The contributions run the gamut from the impact of feminism on specific social science disciplines such as family studies, archaeology, political science, and media studies to the influence of feminist thought on specific topics such as federally funded social science, migration, media practices, and sexuality. The main conclusion of this volume is that, "where reigning paradigms are strong and the accepted methodologies are limited, feminist perspectives tend to be marginalized. On the other hand, fields that are theoretically eclectic and interdisciplinary appear to be the most welcoming to feminist influence."

As a new born-again Christian, I would pray that the contents of this book will prepare you for expanding your consciousness so that you can evolve and become pure and powerful in your walk in Christ. I have attempted to avoid the religious dogma of sin consciousness. Being a "sinner saved by grace" no longer applies to you. I ask you a similar question that God asked Adam in Genesis 3:11: "Who told you that you were naked?" However, my question to you is who told you that you were a sinner? As you read this book, let this be the first of many inquiries you will seek answers to concerning who you are in Christ.

Christine Williams was born, sixth out of eight children, to a very modest family in Nashville, Tennessee, in 1960. When she was in the first grade, Williams was among the first to be integrated into a White school, where instead of learning, she was expected to wash the classroom windows, take out the trash, mop the floor, and dust. When Williams entered the first grade, her race was used against her due to an all-White school and integration. After many humiliations in the classroom, Williams finally gave up on school when she was fifteen.
While school was bad, life was no better at home. There, her days were fraught with dysfunction and tension. To cope, Williams often went out to the back porch, sat on the steps, and talked to God.
Christine Williams has been a lifelong trailblazer against racial injustice. She played an important role while employed by Shoney''s Inc. This included efforts both before the 1989 company-wide race discrimination lawsuit but also in the successful implementation of the settlement of that lawsuit after she became one of the first mid-level African Americans ever employed by Shoney''s. Her efforts helped countless African Americans who came behind her gain better jobs with better work conditions and more opportunities for advancement at Shoney''s.

I have known Christine Williams for many years and have always been impressed by her high moral character, integrity, dedication, and the loyalty she has shown to worthwhile causes in the community. She works tirelessly to help those who do not have a voice and need protection. I am happy to stand up to endorse Christine in anything she does because I have so much confidence in her.
--Brenda Gilmore, Senator, District #19, Tennessee
