330 .. $a " In Brazil and throughout the African diaspora, black women, especially poor black
women, are rarely considered leaders of social movements let alone political theorists.
But in the northeastern city of Salvador, Brazil, it is these very women who determine
how urban policies are established. Focusing on the Gamboa de Baixo neighborhood in
Salvador's city center, Black Women against the Land Grab explores how black women's
views on development have radicalized local communities to demand justice and social
change. In Black Women against the Land Grab, Keisha-Khan Y. Perry describes the key
role of local women activists in the citywide movement for land and housing rights.
She reveals the importance of geographic location for understanding the gendered aspects
of urban renewal and the formation of black women-led social movements. How have black
women shaped the politics of urban redevelopment, Perry asks, and what does this kind
of political intervention tell us about black women's agency? Her work uncovers the
ways in which political labor at the neighborhood level is central to the mass mobilization
of black people against institutional racism and for citizenship rights and resources
in Brazil. Highlighting the political life of black communities, specifically those
in urban contexts often represented as socially pathological and politically bankrupt,
Black Women against the Land Grab offers a valuable corrective to how we think about
politics and about black women, particularly poor black women, as a political force.
