“Jezebel Unhinged is an exciting and provocative scholarly work. … For those interested in a thorough and systematic study of black women and girls and their relationship with the Black Church and black popular culture, this book is one that must be read.”

“A passionate, closely argued, energetically written and illuminating text….”

“The arrow of Dr. Lomax’s words bullseyed into my soul…. Lomax brilliantly argues for critical black feminist religious engagement with how Black womanhood and girlhood are constructed and disseminated in connection with Black religion and Black popular culture. She focuses on the Black Church as a physical and psychic site of particular interest because it holds messy grey spaces outside of the social binaries we’ve been conditioned to accept.”
~B. J. McDaniel, The Lion and the Unicorn
