A new perspective on women’s Black Power leadership legacies

Academics and popular commentors have expressed common sentiments about the Black Power movement of the 1960s and 1970s—that it was male dominated and overrun with autocratic leaders. Yet women’s strategizing, management, and sustained work were integral to movement organizations’ functioning, and female advocates of cultural nationalism often exhibited a unique service-oriented, collaborative leadership style.

Essential Soldiers documents a variety of women Pan-African nationalists’ experiences, considering the ways they produced a distinctive kind of leadership through their devotion and service to the struggle for freedom and equality. Relying on oral histories, textual archival material, and scholarly literature, this book delves into women’s organizing and resistance efforts, investigating how they challenged the one-dimensional notions of gender roles within cultural nationalist organizations. Revealing a form of Black Power leadership that has never been highlighted, Kenja McCray explores how women articulated and used their power to transform themselves and their environments. Through her examination, McCray argues that women’s Pan-Africanist cultural nationalist activism embodied a work-centered, people-centered, and African-centered form of service leadership. A dynamic and fascinating narrative of African American women activists, Essential Soldiers provides a new vantage point for considering Black Power leadership legacies.

Great for behind a dresser
Size: 5 FT (2 prong plug), Color: White
Works great. Plug lays flat against the wall. Doesn't charge great on USB C ports, but it'll get you by. USB charging is 2 out of 5. Quality seems 4 out of 5.

Excellent cable tray—holds everything securely and installs in minutes!
Color: Black, Size: 36"L x 5.5"W
So glad I bought this! The Univivi cable management tray was exactly what I needed to clean up the mess under my desk without drilling or damaging the surface. The clamp-on design is sturdy and holds tight, and setup took just a couple of minutes with no tools needed beyond what’s in the box. I was pleasantly surprised that it holds a full-size power strip securely using the included straps, and there’s still plenty of room for additional cables and adapters. The tray is breathable and helps keep everything from being visible, off the floor and out of sight. If you're looking for a non-permanent solution for organizing power bricks, cords, and excess cable length, this is a great choice. Functional, neat, and hassle-free—highly recommended!

Game changer for cable management – clean setup in minutes
Color: Black, Size: 36"L x 5.5"W, Color: Black, Size: 36"L x 5.5"W
This under-desk cable tray is exactly what I needed. Installation was stupid easy with the clamp mounts — no drilling, no damage to my desk, and it feels rock solid once tightened. The fabric tray holds way more than I expected (power strip + multiple cables) and keeps everything hidden instead of dangling everywhere. My setup instantly looks cleaner and more intentional. If you care about a minimal desk aesthetic, this is a no-brainer. Build quality is better than I expected for the price. The metal brackets are sturdy, the fabric is thick, and it comes with plenty of straps for organizing cables properly. If you’re tired of seeing cable spaghetti under your desk, buy this. Simple, effective, and worth every dollar. Highly recommended.
