It is one of the most formidable cultural forces that defines behaviors and determines everyday relations between women and men at home, church, and work. \u003ci\u003ePostcolonial Imbusa: Bemba Women's Agency, and Indigenous Cultural Systems\u003c\/i\u003e by Mutale Mulenga Kaunda offers a glimpse into the lived \u003ci\u003eimbusa\u003c\/i\u003e and how the teaching proposes women's agency and subjectivity. Mulenga Kaunda argues that the salience and resilience of \u003ci\u003eimbusa\u003c\/i\u003e, despite the contact with various cultures and religions, makes it a critical feminist decolonial resource for constructing life-giving postcolonial womanism. Through combined interviews and philosophical analysis, this book discovers how the knowledge of\u003ci\u003e imbusa\u003c\/i\u003e was produced and how such knowledge constitutes postcolonial and decolonial nego-feminism. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMutale Mulenga Kaunda is postdoctoral research fellow at the Desmond Tutu Center in Religion and Social Justice at the University of Western Cape.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 172\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.56 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e December 15, 2023\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52732738470195,"sku":"9781666926248","price":187.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/E0uK1SM91L9781666926248.webp?v=1763906317","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/products\/postcolonial-imbusa-bemba-womens-agency-and-indigenous-cultural-systems-hardcover","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
