The Radical Imagination of Black Women by Pearl K. Ford Dowe PDF Summary

Book Description: "The Radical Imagination of Black Women: Ambition, Politics and Power explores how elite Black women decide to seek political office.

Utilizing interviews of Black women who currently or have served in office and focus group data of Black women, the manuscript bridges the literatures of ambition theory and marginalization through a theory I refer to a "ambition on the margins". Black women's resistance to marginalization informs us about the conditions that shape Black women and their political socialization, while ambition theory helps us understand what they do in response to marginalization.
