In addition to the most familiar works, this collection presents a great deal of previously inaccessible material, including letters, speeches, prefatory essays, political leaflets, interviews, periodicals, and trial transcripts.

This collection presents 100,000 pages of literature and essays on feminist issues, written by authors from Africa and the African diaspora.
