Hip Hop Feminism & Activism

Dr. Treva Lindsey

Dr. Lindsey specializes in black feminist theory, women's history, and popular culture studies. She has published in and has forthcoming publications in Meridians: Feminism, Race, and Transnationalism, Urban Education, The Black Scholar, The Journal of Pan-African Studies, SOULS, African and Black Diaspora, the Journal of African American Studies, and African American Review. She is also the recipient of several awards and fellowships from the Woodrow Wilson Foundation, the Social Science Research Council, the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, Emory University, the National Women’s Studies Association, and the Center for Arts and Humanities at the University of Missouri. Her first book entitled, Colored No More: Reinventing Black Womanhood in Washington, D.C., will be available on April 15th. Colored No More traces how African American women of the late-nineteenth and early twentieth century made significant strides toward making the nation's capital a more equal and dynamic urban center. Treva B. Lindsey presents New Negro womanhood as a mosaic that included race and blues women, mothers, white collar professionals, beauticians, fortune tellers, sex workers, same-gender couples, artists, activists, and innovators. Drawing from these differing but interconnected African American women's spaces, Lindsay explores a multifaceted urban and cultural history of struggle toward a vision of equality that could emerge and sustain itself.
