Read the passages below, taken from an article about Quicksand, and answer the questions numbered one and two in paragraph form. And while you read the passages, keep in mind the themes /ideas of the women's rights works from earlier. I have attached a copy of the full article for anyone who's interested (but it's not required). From Jessica Labb??s ??Too high a price?: The ?Terrible Honesty? of Black Women?s Work in Quicksand.? Meridians: Feminism, Race, Transnationalism. 10.1. 2010. 81-110. Print.
