Unbound. Zustand: Good. Single sheet, peach paper stock, printed on a single side. A promotional brochure describing the programs, classes and lectures offered at the Afrataaset Living House of Afrakamaatik Spiritual and Cultural Awakening for Wimmin. This includes classes on spiritual self-development and discussions of ancient and modern "Afra-can-female-centered Spiritual Tradition." This was run by AfraShe Asungi, an artist and social worker whose work promoted gender equality and Black spirituality as rooted in ancient African traditions. Asungi's artwork explores Black, queer and goddess themes, much of it recalling mythical themes from Africa. She founded MAMAROOTS: AJAMA-JEBITM, an "AfraGoddess sistahoood dedicated to Afracentric spirituality and cultural awareness" (quoting Asungi as quoted in Sacred Women of Africa and the African Diaspora: A Womanist Vision, an essay by Arisika Razak). As Razak further notes, Asungi's work idealizes the form of dark-skinned woman, removes it from a male gaze, and counters "negative racially charged stereotypes of Black women." GOOD+ condition. Two vertical fold creases present, as issued. Minor wrinkling. Some curling at the corners.…
