Excerpt from A Treatise on the Law of Mortgage During the period which has elapsed since the publication of the former edition of this Treatise, so many important alterations have been made by the legislature in the Law of Real Property, that the labour of adapting the work to the present state of the law has been almost equal to that of its original production. The Author cannot flatter himself that omis sions and errors will not be discovered, but he can safely allege, that neither care nor time (so far as his other engagements permitted) has been spared in order to avoid them.

From one of our most important scholars and civil rights activist icon, a powerful study of the women’s liberation movement and the tangled knot of oppression facing Black women. “Angela Davis is herself a woman of undeniable courage. She should be heard.”—The New York Times Angela Davis provides a powerful history of the social and political influence of whiteness and elitism in feminism, from abolitionist days to the present, and demonstrates how the racist and classist biases of its leaders inevitably hampered any collective ambitions. While Black women were aided by some activists like Sarah and Angelina Grimke and the suffrage cause found unwavering support in Frederick Douglass, many women played on the fears of white supremacists for political gain rather than take an intersectional approach to liberation. Here, Davis not only contextualizes the legacy and pitfalls of civil and women’s rights activists, but also discusses Communist women, the murder of Emmitt Till, and Margaret Sanger’s racism. Davis shows readers how the inequalities between Black and white women influence the contemporary issues of rape, reproductive freedom, housework and child care in this bold and indispensable work.
