Beschreibung
'Poetic yet punchy, enraging yet uplifting, it transforms our mechanisms for survival and resistance into high art.' Sara Collins, author of The Confessions of Frannie Langton

Weaving together narratives that celebrate the triumph of Black female resistance, Catherine Joy White takes us on a unique journey through the eyes of positive and inspiring disruptors.

Throughout history, acts of defiance have taken place in secret, in kitchens, churches, through trusted networks. Others were projected onto a global stage through art, politics and activism.

From Alice Walker to Beyoncé, from Audre Lorde to Doreen Lawrence, from Zendaya to Billie Holiday: Catherine Joy White charts her own journey to self-discovery through the prism of extraordinary women to create a beautiful tapestry of Black joy.

Taking on the legacy of Angela Davis's Women, Race and Class, Audre Lorde's Sister Outsider and Saidiya Hartman's Wayward Lives, This Thread of Gold brings new life to the history of Black women's resistance.
'Catherine Joy White is an extraordinary writer, the kind who turns non-fiction into poetry . . . A stunning debut from a young author, and yet feels, and reads, like it has been decades in the making' Afua Hirsch, author of Brit-ish

'Shines a spotlight on previously untold stories with grace and nuance - I couldn't put it down.' Ione Gamble, author of Poor Little Sick Girls
