Black Women as Cultural Readers by Jacqueline Bobo
Bobo demonstrates that African-American women, as a separate interpretive community, view cultural products in a unique way. In interviews with black women, she examines their specific responses as spectators and consumers of films and novels, including Waiting to Exhale, The Color Purple, and Daughters of the Dust.
Jacqueline Bobo is Chair and Associate Professor of Women's Studies at the University of California, Santa Barbara. She is editor of the anthology, Black Feminist Cultural Criticism: Classic Readings (Blackwell Publishers, January 2001) and of Black Women Film and Video Artists (Routledge, 1998).
