"Color, Sex, and Poetry provides both the bread and the meat of critical analysis and exploration of the lives of three Black women writers." -Belles Lettres

" . . . Hull succeeds not only in exploring writers whose work is hampered by their 'split authorial personalities' but also in outlining the effects of economic circumstances on literary production." -Signs

A biographical/critical study of three Harlem Renaissance poets-Angelina Weld Grimke, Alice Dunbar-Nelson, and Georgia Douglas Johnson-during a rich and colorful period. Writing from a black feminist critical perspective, Hull recovers these black foremothers and in the process shakes up the traditional black literary canon.
