We Want for Our Sisters What We Want for Ourselves: Polygyny: A Relationship, Marriage and Family Alternative

We Want for Our Sisters What We Want for Ourselves, reveals that before European world domination, polygyny was practiced in over 80% of the world's cultures. It has also been practiced throughout Western history and is even done so in contemporary American, however in ways that demoralize women and undermine relationships and families. As an alternative to living without men, Dr. Patricia Dixon proposes open and consensual polygyny or coparterning for African American women and describes the experiences of those who are making it work.
