BLACK WOMAN REDEFINED: DISPELLING MYTHS AND DISCOVERING FULFILLMENT IN THE AGE OF MICHELLE OBAMA

Book ID/图书代码: 12580012B51861

English Summary/英文概要: Stereotypes aren’t funny when they follow you everywhere.

This is the rallying cry that author Sophia A. Nelson wants all of America to grapple with when it comes to the way we view and treat black women.

"Black Woman Redefined" was inspired in part by what Nelson calls "open season on accomplished black women," which reached a tipping point in 2007 when Don Imus referred to black female Rutger’s University basketball co-eds as "nappy-headed hos." Since then, we’ve seen First Lady Michelle Obama caricatured on the infamous "New Yorker" cover, when she was called "angry" and "unpatriotic"; the 2009 groundbreaking Yale University Study on professional black women titled, "Marriage Eludes High-Achieving Black Women"; ABC’s "Why Can’t a Successful Black Woman Find a Man?" and the Internet video that went viral, "Black Marriage Negotiations," featuring a successful black woman interviewing a nice black man to be her mate in a robotic, controlling, emasculating, Bible-thumping demeanor. More recently, we were subjected to the 2011 Super Bowl commercial that started a national firestorm featuring an "angry black woman" throwing a soda can at her mate, after first kicking, slapping, and emasculating him.

Nelson says black women are tired of such depictions that portray them as manless, childless, angry, and unfulfilled. Nelson sets out to change this cultural perception, taking readers on a no-holds-barred journey into the hearts and minds of accomplished black women to reveal truths, tribulations, and insights like never before.

She says it is time for a REDEFINITION among black women in America.

Chinese Summary/中文概要: 刻板印象是不好笑,它随时伴随着你。

这是一种振臂高呼,作者索菲亚A.纳尔逊希望所有美国人能领会我们看待和对待黑人妇女的方式。

《重新定义黑人妇女》部分启发来自于纳尔逊称之为“有成就的黑人妇女的解禁期”,2007年,当Don Imus,2007年把拉特格大学黑人妇女篮球队合辑称为“卷发荡女”时达到一个引爆点,从那时起,第一夫人米歇尔•奥巴马遭到讽刺,大家看到了臭名昭著的《纽约客》封面时,她被称为“愤怒”和“不爱国”的;2009年耶鲁大学开创了专门研究黑人妇女的研究题目,“婚姻远离高实现黑人妇女”; ABC的“为什么成功的黑人女性找不到一个男人?”和一些网络视频,“黑色的婚姻谈判”,指出一些成功黑人妇女,在约见漂亮的黑人男子时,所采用的机械,控制,柔弱,圣经般的风范。最近,我们到2011年的超级杯商业广告,引发了国家的火暴,“愤怒的黑人妇女”,向她的伴侣泼苏打水,后踢,打耳光甚至阉割了他。

尼尔森说黑人妇女已经厌倦了男性化、膝下无子、愤怒和压抑的描述,纳尔逊下决心改变这种文化观念,带领读者走上无界限的旅程,去探究成功黑人妇女的心灵和头脑,揭示前所未有的事实,磨难和见解。

她说,在美国,这是一个重新定义黑人妇女的时候了。(兼职翻译-LNL)

Awards/获奖情况:“根据她在电视上的谈话,索菲亚A.纳尔逊使用大胆见解和干脆的观察,涵盖当下对黑人妇女的诸多神话和误解。但是,这不仅仅只是为黑色妇女而写的书,它向大家展现了大家关心的平等权利与机会,尤其是对各种肤色的妇女,她寻找对一切事物的新视角,从事业到约会再到信仰方面,不管你是否同意或不同意她,你会发现很难方向这本书。” - 克里斯Jansing,艾美奖获奖者和M MSNBC’s Jansing & Co的主持者。

“任何伟大工作持久的遗产是,它牵动着我们的灵魂,使我们反观内心。它呼吁我们打开我们的眼睛,从我们痛苦的阴影中走出,并使生活往前进。《重新定义黑人妇女》做了这样的事。这本出色的,强大的书,不仅是关于黑人妇女,为黑人妇女而写。她邀请每个美国家庭更全面的看待黑人妇女。
