KOBO, Fundiswa. Umfazi akangeni ebuhlanti emzini …: A womanist dialogue with Black Theology of Liberation in the 21st century. Herv. teol. stud. [online]. 2016, vol.72, n.1, pp.1-6. ISSN 2072-8050.  https://doi.org/10.4102/hts.v72i1.3268.

As reflected in the title, this article is premised by pervasive attitudes arising from a complex interplay of cultural practices, which have succeeded in dislocating black women from what is perceived to be black men's sites, ebuhlanti (kraal), esuthwini (initiation school); locating them in culturally designated womanised sites eziko/egoqweni (kitchen and household), ekuzaleni nasekukhuliseni abantwana (child birth and rearing) in a patriarchal society. The crux of the article lies in its attempt to re-locate both men and women by its adoption of 'a hard-line pro-black position'. Womanists acknowledge the interlocution of black men and thus suggest firstly, a shift in mind-set for both to view these sites as life giving and therefore to look for convergences. The article is thus a dialogue between a womanist and Black Theology of Liberation in the 21st century for the purpose of understanding liberation of black people for the liberation of humanity.
