Liberating Minds; Liberating Society: Black Women in the Development of American Culture and Society

Throughout the black experience, African American women contributed to the cultural, economic, educational, and political development of the African American community. They did so while maintaining the image of respectable women who supported both each other and their race. Topics discussed include black femininity, pathological matriarchy in the African American community, and black women on the international stage. The book is published by the Association of Black Women Historians.
