Sassafrass, Cypress & Indigo is a 1982 novel written by Ntozake Shange and first published by St. Martin's Press.
 The novel, which took eight years to complete, is a story of three Black sisters, whose names give the book its title, and their mother.
 The family is based in Charleston, South Carolina, and their trade is to spin, weave, and dye cloth; unsurprisingly, this tactile creativity informs the lives of the main characters as well as the style of the writing.
 "Sassafrass, Cypress & Indigo" integrates the whole of an earlier work by Shange called simply "Sassafrass," published in 1977 by Shameless Hussy Press.
 As is common in Shange's work, the narrative is peppered with interludes that come in the form of letters, recipes, dream stories and journal entires, which provide a more intimate approach to each woman's journey toward self-realization and fulfillment.
 The book deals with several major themes, including Gullah/Geechee culture, women in the arts, the Black Arts Movement, and spirituality, among many others.

"Where We At" Black Women Artists, Inc. (WWA) was a collective of black women artists affiliated with the Black Arts Movement of the 1960s and 1970s.
 It included artists such as Dindga McCannon, Kay Brown, Faith Ringgold, Jerri Crooks, Charlotte Kâ (Richardson), and Vivian E. Browne.
 It was formed in the spring of 1971, in the wake of an exhibition of the same name organized by 14 black women artists at the Acts of Art Gallery in Greenwich Village.
 Themes such as the unity of the Black family, Black male-female relationships, contemporary social conditions, and African traditions were central to the work of the WWA artists.
 The group was intended to serve as a source of empowerment for African-American women, providing a means for them to control their self-representation and to explore issues of Black women’s sensibility and aesthetics.
 Like AfriCobra, a Chicago-based Black Arts group, the WWA was active in fostering art within the African-American community and using it as a tool of awareness and liberation.
 The group organized workshops in schools, hospitals, and cultural centers, as well as art classes for youth in their communities.
