The Palgrave Handbook of Intersectionality in Public Policy
Black Girl Magic Beyond the Hashtag: Twenty-First-Century Acts of Self-Definition
Shadow Bodies: Black Women, Ideology, Representation, and Politics
What does it mean for Black women to organize in a political context that has generally ignored them or been unresponsive although Black women have shown themselves an important voting bloc? How for example, does #sayhername translate into a political agenda that manifests itself in specific policies? Shadow Bodies focuses on the positionality of the Black woman’s body, which serves as a springboard for helping us think through political and cult…

Black Women in Politics: Demanding Citizenship, Challenging Power, and Seeking Justice
Black Women in Politics: Identity, Power, and Justice in the New Millennium
"The research included in this volume examines the competing pressures felt by black women as political agents in the domains of elections, public policy, and social activism. Their challenges and initiatives are explored in public spaces, institutional behaviours, and public policy. The volume features cutting-edge research exploring black women's political engagement. The first group of contributors interrogates the treatment of black women wit…
Responses to affirmative action: Is there a question order affect
This paper analyzes the affect of question order on support for affirmative action. While the literature is replete with studies detailing the racial differences for support for affirmative action, there is a dearth of studies that analyze how probing, using open-ended questions, can influence individuals’ responses. Given this, we seek to analyze and explain how open-ended questions, related to affirmative action, might affect responses to close…
Blogging at the Intersections: Black Women, Identity, and Lesbianism
In my recent explorations of black women as subjects in research-length articles that employ intersectionality, I discovered that black women are rarely, if at all, the sole subjects of such research projects (Jordan-Zachery 2011). This analysis focused on articles published, between 1996 and 2010, in two political science journals that are often ranked at the top—American Political Science Review and Journal of Politics (see Garand and Giles, 20…
Policy Interaction: The Mixing of Fatherhood, Crime and Urban Policies
In an attempt to counter changes in family structures, a number of nation states are designing policies to make men fit into families. In the case of the USA, decision makers view fatherhood and marriage as the cure for poverty among African Americans. To assert that training these men to be better fathers and husbands will help them improve other dimensions of their lives (particularly poverty) is a good idea, but it is also simplistic. Decision…
Am I a Black Woman or a Woman Who Is Black? A Few Thoughts on the Meaning of Intersectionality
On a hot 90-degree day during the summer of 2006, my six-year-old daughter looked at me and asked, "Why can boys run around without a shirt and I can't?" After I explained, or at least attempted to, society's rules and regulations, she quietly looked at me and said, "Oh! It's because I have a vagina. Well, that's not fair." About a year earlier, as she was watching a popular children's show she asked me, "Why are there no little girls that look l…
Reflections on Mentoring: Black Women and the Academy
Mentoring is generally defined as a relationship involving guiding, nurturing, and teaching (both formally and informally) between individuals with differing degrees of experience (Adams 1998; Colwell 1998; Rowley 1999). The mentoring process, in and outside the walls of academia, is often cited as a key ingredient in the development of a successful career. However, for many Black women in academia their ability to benefit from mentoring relation…
