N2 - Elizabeth Williams, first, articulates a Womanist approach that denounces the racial disparities and inequities in access to preventive, diagnostic, and therapeutic services for Black women in the United States. Second, she highlights how grassroots organizations empower women and allow them to take back their health. Moreover, Womanist theology and spirituality, and particularly Womanist ethics, serve Black women in making sense of and responding to breast cancer by promoting breast cancer control and prevention for Black women and by supporting Black women in dealing with the crises breast cancer brings in their lives and in society.
