Attention to her work has grown exponentially over the years--her words have been memorialized in the US passport and, in 2009, she was commemorated with a US postal stamp. Cooper's writings on the centrality of Black girls and women to our larger national discourse has proved especially prescient in this moment of Black Lives Matter, Say Her Name, and the recent protests that have shaken the nation.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAnna Julia Cooper\u003c\/b\u003e (1858 - 1964) was an American author, educator, sociologist, speaker, and Black liberation activist, and one of the most prominent African-American scholars in United States history. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eShirley Moody-Turner\u003c\/b\u003e (editor) is an associate professor of English and African American Studies at Penn State University.
