A history of the struggle of black women to attain equality and
break away from exploitation. At the turn of the century, when
African-Americans faced lyching, mob violence, segregation, and
disenfranchisement, African-American women stepped forward with a
plan of organized resistance. Thus began a century of black women
organizing on behalf of their race and themselves. This work
explores the efforts of black women to define and explain
themselves as well as race and gender issues to white and black
men. This history highlights their persistent struggle against
racism, male chauvinism and negative stereotypes; it also brings to
light and celebrates early 20th-century African-American women's
unlauded support for women's rights, civil rights, and civil
liberties.
