Exploring Zora Neale Hurston's life and work through a decolonial lens, this book traces Hurston's journey from her early life (1891-1919) and struggles at the margins (1920-1930) to her peak as a pioneering ethnographer and writer (1931-1956) and her later years (1957-1960). Examining her navigation of a hostile academic environment, it highlights her redefinition of Black autonomy and diasporic identity. Through personal and political narratives, including Barracoon, it underscores Hurston's enduring influence on Anthropology and contemporary Black thought.
