Black Schoolgirls in Space

Locating Black girls' desires, needs, knowledge bases, and lived experiences in relation to their social identities has become increasingly important in the study of transnational girlhoods. Black Schoolgirls in Space pushes this discourse even further by exploring how Black girls negotiate and navigate borders of blackness, gender, and girlhood educational spaces. The contributors of this collected volume highlight girls as actors and agents of not only girlhood but also the larger, transnational educational worlds in which girlhoods are contained.
