Feminist African Philosophy: Women and the Politics of Difference by Abosede Priscilla Ipadeola. Routledge Studies in African Philosophy. New York: Routledge, 2023.

By

Sharon Adetutu Omotoso

Abosede Ipadeola’s Feminist African Philosophy is a compact book which offers insights into a hitherto under-researched area of African Philosophy. It is presented as a text big enough to educate and small enough to be read for both leisure and research. The main focus of the book is decolonising African feminism within the field of African Philosophy. The author addresses the exclusion, defamation, degradation, and dehumanisation of African women occasioned by the “maleness” of African Philosophy. It is a careful compendium of well-researched literature, providing a comprehensive analysis of precedents to general readers and beginners. At the same time, it contains a set of critical reflections for established scholars.
