MAB

This is a funny, uplifting book for all mothers/homemakers. I found myself laughing so hard I would cry. She focuses on everyday events that each and everyone of us think only we go through. I would definitely recommend this book for any homemaker/woman who needs a good laugh! I couldn't put it down.

I read this book and can't stop telling my friends about it. I love the short stories she tells with the biblical applications and lessons. I really want to find and get all her books. I am so upset they are not in print.

I read this book (God Loves My Kitchen Best) many years ago and loved it. I loaned my only copy out and never got it back. Unfortunately, I can't remember who I loaned it to. This book is VERY hard to find, so I'm delighted to find it here.

M. Jacqui Alexander is, without question, the boldest, most courageous and radical feminist thinker working today. Is it any wonder she's been denied tenure numerous times? Her work in this anthology and her forthcoming 'Pedagogies of Crossing' demonstrates a commitment those places of the sacred where politics, the social, and the sacred are inseparable. She will create an epistemic rupture that will change forever the substance and tenor of feminist, liberatory thought in which an entirely unsentimental approach to African cosomological systems breaks down the hegemony of the linguistic, the written, and the visual, instead taking into account of all of the senses. Ignore her work at your peril, it represents a hard-won and 'difficult' hope at a time when the latter seems to be slipping away.

Collaboratively compiled and edited by feminists, activists and academics M. Jacqui Alexander, Lisa Albrecht, Sharon Day, and Mab Segrest, Sing, Whisper, Shout, Pray!: Feminist Visions For A Just World is a thoughtful and thought-provoking, 737-page anthology articulate writings exploring the politics of race, class, and gender from a dedicated feminist perspective. Astutely examining such issues as the increasing frequency with which women are being convicted for killing their children; to troubling racial imbalances in the criminal justice system; to the failure of decolonization; and a great deal more, Sing, Whisper, Shout, Pray! is a quite profoundly impressive compilation which is especially recommended for Women's Studies and Political Science reference collections and reading lists.

This book showcases the filthy ravings of a truly degenerate "human being." Read it for insight into the mind of a truly depraved individual.

I write this review to praise Mab Segrest's brilliant, beautiful writing: stylistically lovely, deeply insightful, politically powerful. This book is a must read for anyone invested in US cultural politics from the perspective of a passionate activist and incredibly talented writer (and speaker -- I had the privilege of seeing Mab live and she's FABULOUS).

This diary is fast moving and entertaining, yet it doesn't lose it's impact. Mab Segrest is an activist who has been working against the fascist right for many years. Her focus has been primarily on issues related to race, but she also touches on issues related to being a lesbian. Mab was raised in a family who actively worked to prevent the desegregation of schools, so her diary includes some interesting insights into what it's like to be actively working on political and social fronts that are opposite to those held by your immediate family. She also clearly and completely describes some heartbreaking work she did in the 80s - work that involved investigating the murders of several people, some of which were her friends and mentors. The events and the governmental abuses that led to these deaths are disturbing, yet described without a hint of sensationalism or propaganda - just honesty, and sorrow. The book ends with a 100 page history of the USA in in the past few decades, with an emphasis being placed on race relations and gay and lesbian issues. There's a lot of information in this little biography, and all of it's extremely well written. I highly recommend it.
