In *Black Macho and the Myth of the Superwoman*, Michele Wallace blasts the masculinist bias of 1960s Black politics, showing how women remained marginalised by the patriarchal culture of Black Power. She describes the ways in which traditional, male-identified myths of Black womanhood block the development of a separate female subjectivity. Wallace explores the concept of the 'Strong Black Woman' and the labels, tropes and stereotypes applied to Black women and that are perpetuated by Black men.
