But women have been missing from accounts of the Congo s decolonization. What new ideals of masculinity and femininity were generated in this struggle? Were masculinist biases re-inscribed in later depictions of the martyred nationalist? Through analysis of Lumumba s writings and speeches, the life stories of women activists, and literary and cinematic works, Gender and Decolonization in the Congo: The Legacy of Patrice Lumumba challenges male-centered interpretations of Congolese nationalism and illustrates how generic conventions both reinforced and undercut gender bias in representations of Lumumba and his female contemporaries. 606 $aAfrica$xPolitics and government 606 $aSex 606 $aPolitical science 606 $aAfrica$xHistory 606 $aPolitics and war 606 $aAfrican Politics 606 $aGender Studies 606 $aPolitical Science 606 $aAfrican History 606 $aMilitary and Defence Studies 615 0$aAfrica$xPolitics and government. 615 0$aSex. 615 0$aPolitical science. 615 0$aAfrica$xHistory. 615 0$aPolitics and war. 615 14$aAfrican Politics. 615 24$aGender Studies. 615 24$aPolitical Science. 615 24$aAfrican History. 615 24$aMilitary and Defence Studies. 676 $a967.51/024092 700 $aBouwer$b K$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01469731 801 2$bCaOLU 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910785579103321 996 $aGender and Decolonization in the Congo$93681290 997 $aUNINA
