This critical text proposes new ways of conceptualizing Black womanhood by challenging plantation patriarchal culture and its binary constructions, and methods of Black heterosexual coupling. Black Women’s performances of womanhood are understood from juxtapositions with white idealism, resulting in Black womanhood explained negatively or for what it is not, rather than positively and expansively for what it is and could be.
This book contextualizes Black womanhood as it was shaped by historical experiences of plantation, trauma, survival and most importantly, triumph. Myrie Obi expands upon her theory of butch heterosexuality, which identifies elements of gender presentation commonly marked as masculine. Using Jack Halberstam’s essential work of queer theory, “Female Masculinity” as a point of departure, Myrie Obi uses the Commonwealth Caribbean as a site of new inquiry. Butch heterosexuality challenges the patriarchal gender binary and encourages an understanding of sexuality and gender performance as distinct, arguing against a conflation of female masculinity and lesbianism. The result is an alternative way to start conversations about decolonial approaches to understanding (Caribbean) Black women, Black sexuality and Black gender performances.
This book is critical reading for scholar activists and students in the areas of Black or Caribbean studies, Black sexualities and gender studies, sociology, social work, politics, gender justice and social justice courses.

Memmo's summaries are gold before exams. I don't have to re-read 800 pages two weeks before — just the important parts.
The AI chat has saved me the night before an exam more than once. I just keep asking until I get it — no waiting on a study group to reply.
The quizzes hit exactly what I need to know. Memmo tracks what I get stuck on — so I only practice what's worth it.
Flashcards with spaced repetition are magic. Memmo knows when I'm about to forget something and brings it back.
The AI podcasts are my favorite. I listen on my way to school and get a recap without sitting at a computer.
