Episode description

On this *UNLOCKED* #LitReview from Season 1, Yvette discusses the novel “Their Eyes Were Watching God” by Zora Neale Hurston with deportation defense attorney Laura. They reflect on how notions of “womanhood” are imposed on young girls of color, praise the lineage of black scholars who re-elevated Hurston’s work after her death, and discuss why women of color need to create their own intellectual spaces.
