Untold thousands of black North Carolinians suffered or died during
the Jim Crow era because they were denied admittance to white-only
hospitals. With little money, scant opportunities for professional
education and few white allies, African American physicians, nurses
and other community leaders created their own hospitals, schools of
nursing and public health outreach efforts. The author chronicles
the important but largely unknown histories of more than 35
hospitals, the Leonard Medical School and 11 hospital-based schools
of nursing established in North Carolina, and recounts the
decades-long struggle for equal access to care and equal
opportunities for African American health care professionals.
