My topic discussed the sexual objectification of Black women from the beginnings of slavery until now. This topic is very important to me because Black women’s sexual objectification contributes to the continuation of their subjugation and dehumanization. I needed to include Sarah Baartman who during the 19th century was paraded around like a circus act because of her body. I also included the Jezebel stereotype which originated during the 19th century and continues on today with different terms. And lastly, I wanted to end on a more positive note by stating how things have changed for Black women and how they are taking ownership of their sexuality.
