African feminists have been producing knowledge for centuries. Finding it however has not always been easy. Until the internet age, diverse African feminist thought and praxis has been notoriously hard to access. Many feminists of my generation remember hours spent in the catalogues of university libraries searching disparately for texts written by African women whose historical experience spoke to ours. There was nothing like the pleasure of finding analysis about a context or issue produced by someone who actually knew it intimately as heir to its legacy — and not just as an external observer of it.
