Abstract

ABSTRACT Sister Style: The Politics of Appearance for Black Women Political Elites by Nadia E. Brown and Danielle Casarez Lemi is simultaneously a journey of self-love and a master class in presenting an innovative and powerful study on Black women. The authors employ several methods to give voice to Black Women political elites and their experiences while uncovering and expanding our knowledge about political obstacles that Black women face that are specific to their physical appearances. This work pushes our understanding and ideas about what constitutes Political Science and lays the groundwork for future intersectional, interdisciplinary work.

期刊介绍： The Journal of Women, Politics & Policy explores women and their roles in the political process as well as key policy issues that impact women''s lives. Articles cover a range of tops about political processes from voters to leaders in interest groups and political parties, and office holders in the legislative, executive, and judicial branches of government (including the increasingly relevant international bodies such as the European Union and World Trade Organization). They also examine the impact of public policies on women''s lives in areas such as tax and budget issues, poverty reduction and income security, education and employment, care giving, and health and human rights — including violence, safety, and reproductive rights — among many others. This multidisciplinary, international journal presents the work of social scientists — including political scientists, sociologists, economists, and public policy specialists — who study the world through a gendered lens and uncover how gender functions in the political and policy arenas. Throughout, the journal places a special emphasis on the intersection of gender, race/ethnicity, class, and other dimensions of women''s experiences.
