A Black Women's History of the United States is an exceptionally in-depth history of Black women's experiences in the United States and on the continent of North America. The tellings in the book date all the way from the sixteenth century to modern day. This book is more of a historical retelling than a theoretical argument or political analysis, but it is still beneficial for conceptualizing how Black women are treated in the U.S. today.
