Black Sexual Politics

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
I chose it because it is the title of the course I am taking. This was important because I wanted to see what articles would come up with the search of the course name. The article was information about the book Black Sexual Politics, by Patricia Hill Collins. My first impression was that I didn't realized there was a book.

Evaluate the article
The article was over a book. The articles had an intro to the work without going into an entire summary. The there is a section list for the article. The article lists the chapters of the book and then proceeds to a summary of the work. The article then goes into the section LGBT. In this sections the article discusses Hill Collins claims about the need for the black community to be accepting of black folks who identify as apart of the LGBTQIA+ community. Then there is a see more section with additional articles related to the topic of Black Sexual Politics, a reference section, and a further reading sections with similar works. The first thing the article could improve on is references and sources. The article could use maybe how the book was received in the field of Black Studies and whether or not Hill Collins was agreed with in the work. I didn't see a talk page for the article but there has been minor edits since the year 2009 all the way up until 2021. Since the article is about a book and not a specific argument, the lack of resources is understandable. There is only one image, which is the cover of the book. Again, overall the article needs more detail.
