Abstract : This research work is about black women’s contribution in the struggle for black freedom in America as dramatized in Toni Morrison’s works. Drawing from the New Historicism, the psychological and sociological approaches which allow to enlighten a literary text within its socio-historical dimension, it purports to highlight strategies of revolt settled by black female characters against social injustices and discrimination in order to integrate the American society. The exploration of the selected narratives evidences the manifestations of black women’s struggle for

Yaa Gyasi’s Homegoing presents the horrific sequences of black women’s experience throughout history. Such experience encompasses the plights—both mundane and spectacular—of women’s marginalization and deprivation. Gyasi’s narrative style, by turns historical and racially intimate, evokes common themes of misogynoir; and her novel abounds with deprived protagonists and androcentric entities. Focusing on black women’s experience, this study theoretically attempts to explore the concept of feminist “courageous code&a

Abstract:
The theme of the second declamation of Calpurnius Flaccus is ‘Matrona Aethiopem peperit. Arguitur adulterii’. In one of the excerpts (ed. L. Håkanson [Stuttgart, 1978], pp. 2, 6–10), the accuser is arguing that for a white woman with a white husband to produce a black child is certain proof of adultery, for individual races have fixed physical characteristics to distinguish them. I give the text as argued for by W. S. Watt (Eranos 94 [1996], 123).

Abstract Background: Racial disparities among patients with breast cancer in the United States are well documented, with Black patients having a 40% higher mortality than White patients. Socioeconomic status, tumor biology differences, and treatment access are known contributing factors. Additionally, despite having a higher incidence of TNBC, Black patients are substantially less likely to receive gBRCA1/2mut testing than White patients. TNBC is an aggressive subtype, accounting for 15% of all breast cancers diagnosed in the United States. TNBC disproportionately affects BRCA mutation carrier

A century after Ngungunyane's defeat by the Portuguese, Ungulani Ba Ka Khosa published Ualalapi , widely read as a devastating critique of Mozambique's FRELIMO party's postcolonial politics as a continuation of Ngungunyane's bloody reign.

Abstract:
Living among the Whites has caused many problems for the Blacks throughout the history. African Americans, who are African in their roots and American in their life, as opposite races, are segregated from the White’s societies due to their colored skin. They are considered as uncivilized and lowbrow people who do not have equal rights to the Whites. Thus, racial segregation acting like a veil, as Du Bois refers to, brings African Americans a dual identity which leads to their double consciousness.

Sickle cell disease (SCD) is an inherited hemoglobin disorder. It is characterized by the presence of abnormal hemoglobin S. SCD leads to chronic hemolysis, vaso-occlusive episodes, various organ complications, and varying degrees of anemia. The prevalence of heavy menstrual bleeding (HMB) is 10-35% in the United States, with a higher prevalence in the Black population. Women with SCD often face challenges with their menstrual and reproductive health. Earlier studies have reported heavy menstrual bleeding as well as dysmenorrhea in adolescent women with sickle cell disease; however, there is l

However, the molecular composition of collagen stroma has yet to be linked to ancestry and aggressiveness of breast cancer.
