Drawing upon more than a decade's worth of archival research into nineteenth-century antislavery newspapers, pamphlets, broadsides, and more, Range highlights the expansiveness of the movement by focusing not on one, but a chorus of abolitionist voices. Her investment in celebrating Black and women's histories, in particular, offers an inclusive account of American history, informed not only by thorough research but through a formal, poetic engagement with the past. In exploring how enslaved people's self-emancipation was a form of resistance that preceded, operated alongside, and intertwined with organized networks of antislavery activists, \u003ci\u003ePrinter's Fist\u003c\/i\u003e will help facilitate discussions surrounding race, gender, and activism that are grounded in historical fact and emotional truth.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Vanderbilt University Press","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47776111427735,"sku":"9780826500090","price":1687.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780826500090.webp?v=1777994333","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/printers-fist-poems-9780826500090","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
