摘要：Catherine Knight Steele’s Digital Black Feminism is the first scholarly monograph to center the experiences, contributions, and impact of Black women in technology and digital culture studies. Across five chapters, Steele charts the evolution of Black feminism and demonstrates how technology has always been an integral part of Black women’s lives in the United States. By interrogating the ways in which Black women and Black feminists have continually engaged with technology, Steele proves that “Black feminist thought work has forever altered digital communication technologies” (8). As a Black feminist with scholarly expertise and experience as both participant and observer in digital Black feminist spaces, Steele is uniquely positioned to make this important contribution. Steele grounds her study in work set forth by Black feminists like Patricia Hill Collins, bell hooks, and Joan Morgan, delivering an approachable text that unpacks the important, nuanced ideologies of digital Black feminism.
