A Voice from the South by Anna J. Cooper is a collection of essays written in the late 19th century. A cornerstone of black feminist and political theory, this book focuses on racial progress and women's rights. The opening of the book sets the stage for Cooper's exploration of womanhood, race, and social justice. Cooper reflects on the silence surrounding the struggles of the Black woman, illustrating her determination to contribute to the discourse on race and gender. She articulates the necessity of acknowledging and amplifying the voices of Black women, who have often been overlooked in discussions about societal progress, particularly in the context of the South's complex racial dynamics.
