Reviews
"This refreshing and insightful collection of essays offers a rich theorizing of Black women's friendships, experiences, and lives both historically and in the contemporary period. Understanding sisterhood as a theory or paradigm of Black women's shared practices of living in and deciphering the world, the collection narrates Black women's journeys through family life, educational institutions and their communities. For those looking to build their own support networks in communities, educational institutions and other organizations, this is a must read." --Andrea A. Davis is an associate professor in the Department of Humanities and special advisor on anti-Black racism strategies in the Faculty of Liberal Arts & Professional Studies at York University, Toronto, "As a collection, this volume adds much dimension to Black women's studies. This blend of theory, discipline, lived experience, and progressive methodology is interesting in structure and content. The connection of academic space to community space to digital space--creating sisterhood--brings the reader on a journey through many areas of connection and creation of meaning--from support in intimate spaces to resistance in oppressive public spaces." --Dr. Stephanie Y. Evans, Georgia State University

Synopsis
Sisterhood is oft elusive, if not a misunderstood concept. Despite all the factors that could impede the development, elevation, and maintenance of sistering relationships, Black women continue to acknowledge the value of sisterhoods. Sistering offers a lifeline of support and validation. Holding membership in an empowering woman-centered relationship is a special kind of privilege.

As we consider how sisterhood could be enacted as practice. Using Sisterhood as a framework, we explore Sisterhood as Peer Support, examining how Black women provide support to peers in academic and professional settings. we embark on a provision of applied exemplars of sistering in emer, A powerful exploration of Black sisterhood as a source of strength, resilience, and transformation.
