Abstract:
Kathryn Sophia Belle centers feminist frameworks, discourses, and vocabularies of Black women and other women of colour that existed prior to and have continued to exist after 'The Second Sex'. She centres and amplifies the voices of Black women and other women of colour, such as Loraine Hansberry, Angela Davis, Chikwenye Ogunyemi, Deborah King, Mariana Ortega, Kathy Glass, bell hooks, Kyoo Lee, Stephanie Rivera Berruz, Patricia Hill Collins, and Alia Al-Saji. Special attention is also given to Claudia Jones and Audre Lorde, both of whom implicitly and indirectly engage with 'The Second Sex'. 'Beauvoir and Belle' demonstrates the myriad ways in which these frameworks both expose and surpass the limits of 'The Second Sex'.
