Overview
Mary Ann Shadd Cary was a courageous and outspoken
nineteenth-century African American who used the press and public
speaking to fight slavery and oppression in the United States and
Canada. Part of the small free black elite who used their education
and limited freedoms to fight for the end of slavery and racial
oppression, Shadd Cary is best known as the first African American
woman to publish and edit a newspaper in North America. But her
importance does not stop there. She was an active participant in
many of the social and political movements that influenced
nineteenth century abolition, black emigration and nationalism,
women's rights, and temperance.
Mary Ann Shadd Cary : The Black Press and
Protest in the Nineteenth Century explores her remarkable life
and offers a window on the free black experience, emergent black
nationalisms, African American gender ideologies, and the formation
of a black public sphere. This new edition contains a new epilogue
and new photographs.
