Recommended Webinar & Book: "Beauvoir and Belle: A Black Feminist Critique of The Second Sex" by Kathryn Sophia Belle

In this groundbreaking work, Kathryn Sophia Belle brings a much-needed Black feminist lens to Simone de Beauvoir's "The Second Sex". Through this critique, Belle amplifies the voices of Black women and Women of Color, showcasing how their feminist discourses have long existed alongside and beyond Beauvoir’s landmark text. Key figures such as Angela Davis, Lorraine Hansberry, Audre Lorde, and Patricia Hill Collins are centered to reveal the limitations of Beauvoir's analysis of oppression.

Belle critically challenges the analogies used by Beauvoir, showing how they often overlook or misrepresent the lived experiences of Black women and Women of Color. By illuminating the scholarly engagement of these women with *The Second Sex*, Belle’s work calls attention to the persistent exclusion of their perspectives in mainstream feminist discourse.

This book is essential for anyone interested in expanding their understanding of feminism through an intersectional lens. I highly recommend watching the webinar featuring Kathryn Sophia Belle, where these important themes are discussed in depth.
