'You Don’t Know Us Negroes: and Other Essays' by Zora Neale Hurston is a powerful collection that showcases the breadth of Hurston’s intellectual and cultural contributions beyond her celebrated fiction. Edited by Genevieve West and Henry Louis Gates Jr., the volume brings together previously uncollected essays spanning several decades, offering critical insight into race, gender, politics, and Black identity in America. Hurston’s sharp wit, anthropological training, and unapologetic individualism are evident throughout, particularly in her critiques of both white supremacy and the conformity she saw within certain segments of Black leadership.
