Hi Cheryl Gittens,
What time frames are you interested in, for your research on west
African Women.

I have a wealth of knowledge about world history period, and Africa and
Asia in general, not to mention the Americas.

The time frame for info on women in west Africa is critical because
there has been so much upheaval and disruption in the lives of these
people which escalated with the beginning of the Moslem religion in the
seventh century of the present Era on a large scale.  This paved the way
for the Europeans to devastate and colonize.

African is making a comeback but the obstacles are great but not unique. 

Let me know if I can be of help.  Sincerely, Kamar Osage.
