Reference citations unclear

It is not clear which book the "Hudson-Weems" citations refer to. The publication year or book title should be included in the citations so that it is not ambiguous. See how it is done atEmma Goldmanfor example.Kaldari(talk)15:54, 2 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

removing POV tag with no active discussion perTemplate:POV

I've removed an old neutrality tag from this page that appears to have no active discussion per the instructions atTemplate:POV:

This template is not meant to be a permanent resident on any article. Remove this template whenever:

There is consensus on the talkpage or the NPOV Noticeboard that the issue has been resolved
It is not clear what the neutrality issue is, and no satisfactory explanation has been given
In the absence of any discussion, or if the discussion has become dormant.

Since there's no evidence of ongoing discussion, I'm removing the tag for now. If discussion is continuing and I've failed to see it, however, please feel free to restore the template and continue to address the issues. Thanks to everybody working on this one! --Khazar2(talk)02:39, 14 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Serious POV issues

This article is pure apologia.

(Aside from numerous other issues: Formatting, length, references, the fact that it reads like something a 2nd year critical theory student, hopped up on ritalin, threw together in one night.)

What do other feminists say about it? We don't know.

Would a Marxist say that Africana Womanism is the bastard child of intersectional theory and bourgeois intellectual snobbery, that completely ignores issues of class, in favor of racialist pseudo intellectual garbage? Probably, but apparently no criticism has ever been put forward of African Womanism, according to this article.

What do actual African women say about it? That would be a logical question, considering that the article exclusively mentions North American intellectuals/activists. But again, we have no idea after spending the 30-40 minutes it takes to soldier through this article.— Precedingunsignedcomment added by192.38.143.54(talk)21:09, 3 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
