In She Who Imagines, a diverse set of scholars challenges the exclusion and false definitions while constructing capacious ideas that discover beauty in unexpected places. In these essays, the authors draw on a variety of arts media--painting, photography, portraiture, craftwork, poetry, and hip-hop music--thereby joining beauty to truth and, in a richly defining way, to the practice of justice.
