THE WOMANIST: A NEWSLETTER FOR AFROCENTRIC FEMINIST RESEARCHERS

    Statement of purpose: _The Womanist_ is meant to be a gathering place for
Afrocentric feminist researchers who are struggling to devise, develop, and
disseminate womanist methodologies within traditional (or non-traditional)
academic disciplines.  Many of us find ourselves working alone in situations
where womanist perspectives are considered foreign or even unaccceptable, and
many of us are not aware of other womanist researchers we can turn to for
information and corroboration.  _The Womanist_ is meant to be a place where
we can share ideas, ask questions, and engage in supportive criticism, in
order to strengthen our mission, de-marginalize our activities, and provide
wider access to our perspectives.
