Laughing Matters 2 reviews Kate Clinton, Marga Gomez
Wolfe Video, 2004
permanences: lesbian comics
+ Too good to be true
This format is becoming very popular and formulaic. Four comics from the same oppressed identity group perform standup on the same videotape or DVD. First came black men, then came black women, Latino men, and working-class white men. In this tape, lesbian comics take the torch. So I was ...

Miscegenation Blues: Voices of Mixed Race Women 1 review
Sister Vision Press, 1994
multiracial women's voices from Canada
Just as books on multiracial people in the United States are being produced rapidly, the same is beginning to happen in Canada. The editor's journey is fascinating. She starts by saying she sought her validation in dark-skinned boyfriends and that because she was brown and didn't know her ethnic ...

Kitchen Table--Women of Color Press, 1984
Very important collection
+ A classic, ground-breaking feminist of color anthology! + Should be On Every Feminist Bookshelf, in Every Library.
Oh my goodness!! This is an incredible ground-breaking book of awareness and consciousness. It was a must-read for anyone coming of age in the 1980's and it is still relevant today.

Women of Color 12 reviews Darlene Mathis
Capital Books, 1999
It's Color Me Beautiful For Women Of Color
+ A good book, but there is room to improve + Must-buy for Image Consultants - current and future!
I met Ms. Mathis at a book signing more than 10 years ago, and found her to be a lovely, caring person. She was a disciple of Carole Jackson who expanded the original CMB concept to include various ethnicities. I found the book to be heavy on advice for African-American skintypes rather than ...

Columbia University Press, 1999
Move over, Sappho and Gertrude Stein!
So much writing about homosexuality covers men in the West only. Through his monographs, Stephen Murray has done a lot to cover same-sex love between men outside of the West. Finally, this anthology is an attempt to cover non-Western lesbian and transgendered women.
Many books have said female ...

Talking Black: Lesbians of African and Asian Descent Speak Out (Women on Women) 1 review Valerie Mason-John
Cassell, 1995
Okay book about lesbians of colour (spelled purposefully)
This is a British anthology on lesbians of color. The lack of Latina and Native American voices in this book is a sign of its Britishness. If you liked the "Piece of My Heart" anthology, you should like this. It reminds me of "This Bridge Called My Back" in some ways as well. The context is ...
