In these thirty-six essays, Walker contemplates her own work and that of other writers, considers the civil rights movement of the 1960s and the anti-nuclear movement of the 1980s, and writes vividly and courageously about a scarring childhood injury. Throughout, Walker explores the theories and practices of feminism, incorporating what she calls the womanist tradition of black women-insights that are vital to understanding our lives and society today.When I graduated from college, my father gave me Alice Walkers In Search of Our Mothers Gardens. It was a beaten-up paperback in 1999, and its even more battered now. -Jesmyn Ward\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51530814783776,"sku":"NEW0063346842","price":13.84,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/81zAMOQbJvL.jpg?v=1777267993","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/in-search-of-our-mothers-gardens-womanist-prose-groundbreaking-essays-by-a-black-woman-on-feminism-and-political-society-0063346842","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
