"The Black feminist theoretical lens has enriched our collective understanding of history, culture, and movements for social justice. With Say Her Name, Brown applies an analysis rooted in Black feminism to the world of sports and it is a revelation. Brown takes old debates and turns them on their heads, staking out new ground in our understanding of sports. Say Her Name deserves to be seen as one of the most important sports books in some time."— Dave Zirin, author of The Kaepernick Effect: Taking a Knee, Changing the World
"Say Her Name addresses the desperate need of a full-length treatment of Black sportswomen through a critical feminist lens. This will be an influential and widely cited text for decades to come."— Cheryl Cooky, coauthor of No Slam Dunk: Gender, Sport, and the Unevenness of Social Change
"The reflexive nature of Say Her Name is a welcomed breath. The opportunity to hear the voice of a Black woman writing on the lived experiences of Black sportswomen moves her narrative from margin to center, object to subject, and creates space to see her humanity and hear her truth."— Akilah Carter-Francique, dean of the School of Education, Health and Human Services at Benedict College
