Reviews
" After Freedom is not only a classic of African American history.  It is also a model case study in how to do ethnographic field work, how to listen deeply to one's informants, how to write with rich detail and a keen analytical eye."--Paul R. Spickard, Brigham Young University, "Powdermaker's work provides us with what is still a unique look at how African American men and women struggled to build families, develop capital, and create a community under conditions which made it necessary for both subjects and the observer to refer to their moment in time as 'after freedom,' though it was almost three-quarters of a century after emancipation.  Her work offers us perspectives that foreshadowed contemporary ethnography's efforts to 'bring anthropology back home,' Afrocentric research's focus on Africa in America, and feminist theory's attempt to incorporate race and class into constructions of white-woman gender studies."-Brackette F. Williams and Drexel G. Woodson, University of Arizona, " After Freedom is not only a classic of African American history.

Product is 95% alike picture but a little more blurry. Controller play well but had a notice from psn that my joypad wasn't authentic and could by problematic🤷‍♂️ no trouble so far! Shipping was fast but no tracking and worst packaging ever.. like the box came banged up... send a question to seller never had a reply 😅.... Good product overall, excellent price, fast shipping, wrapped only on 4 sides out of 6, no tracking and never reply... 4★ product / 2★ seller ✌️

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
