- Description
- Collection of letters. In 1942 Pauli Murray (1910-1985), a young black woman from North Carolina studying law at Howard University, visited a constitutional law class taught by Caroline Ware (1899-1990), one of America's leading historians. A friendship and a correspondence began, lasting until Murray's death in 1985. 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 developing an international career as a community development specialist.

- Description
- The author documents six decades [1910-1970] of politically active black women in New York City who waged struggles for justice, rights, and equality not through grassroots activism but through formal politics. In tracing the paths of black women activists from women's clubs and civic organizations to national politics - including appointments to presidential commissions, congressional offices, and even a presidential candidacy - she also articulates the vision of politics the women developed and its influence on the Democratic party and its policies. Examining how race, gender, and the structure of the state itself shape outcomes, she exposes the layers of power and discrimination at work in all sectors of U.S. society.

- Description
- The founder of the Feminist Press offers an account of her accomplished life. There's her personal life: growing up in a working-class family in Brooklyn in the 1930s, her marriages: her desire for children and laborious building of a family of close friends, adopted teenage black daughter, and stepsons. Then there's her professional life: teaching, civil rights and antiwar activism, development of women's studies, and her most important project, the Feminist Press, started 40 years ago. Her private and professional lives sometimes intersect, especially in her chapter 'Becoming a Feminist,' but usually she deals with these parts of her life separately. Howe is most enlightening in describing her childhood, with a mother who doted on her son but often treated Howe harshly (perhaps to teach her how hard a woman's life is). Yet after her mother's death, Howe finds that her mother had kept every piece of paper reflecting Howe's achievements. Howe is most comfortable writing about her work with the Feminist Press, as well as her travels to international conferences.

- Born in upper-crust black Chicago - her father was for years head of pediatrics at Provident, at the time the nation’s oldest black hospital, her mother was a socialite - Margo Jefferson (1947) has spent most of her life among ‘the colored aristocracy’. Reckoning with the strictures and demands of Negroland at historical moments - the civil rights movement, the dawn of feminism, the fallacy of postracial America - the author charts the twists and turns of a life informed by psychological and moral contradictions.
