In late
1929,
a
remarkable series
of demonstrations, protests, risings, and
riots involving tens of thousands of Igbo and Ibibio-speaking women took
place throughout southeastern Nigeria. In the course of what its perpetrators
called the Women s War, more than fifty Igbo and Ibibio women were
killed by British troops and an unknown number were wounded and
otherwise traumatized. The Women s War marked a historical high point
in West African resistance to colonialism, making an indelible impression
on all who witnessed it, Britons and Africans alike. African scholars differ
in their interpretations of the Women s War, while others simply
dismissed the British actions as yet another instance of the violence that
has attended colonialism since the Spanish first set foot in the Americas.
They were that, to be sure, but a fuller understanding of how the tensions
of empire played out requires the historicization of colonial violence.This
book brings together for the first time both sets of actors, analyzing their
behaviors from the multiple perspectives of the war s colonized and colonial
participants, and examining the various actions of the main protagonists
within in a single, gendered analytical frame.
