This title explores the cross-race friendship of two feminist
activists.In 1942, Pauli Murray, a young black woman from North
Carolina studying law at Howard University, visited a
constitutional law class taught by Caroline Ware, one of the
nation's leading historians. A friendship and a correspondence
began, lasting until Murray's death in 1985. Their forty-year
correspondence ranged widely over issues of race, politics, and
international affairs.In time, Murray became a labor lawyer, a
university professor, and the first black woman to be ordained an
Episcopal priest. Ware continued her work as a social historian and
consumer advocate while pursuing an international career as a
community development specialist. Their letters, products of high
intelligence and a gift for writing, offer revealing portraits of
their authors as well as the workings of an unusual female
friendship. They also provide a wonderful view of the social and
political thought of the times, particularly regarding civil rights
and women's rights.
