This book takes a biographical look at Lucy Craft Laney, Mary McLeod Bethune, Nannie Helen Burroughs, Charlotte Hawkins Brown. The four women knew each other through the National Association of Colored Women's Clubs. The other four women founded schools for African-American children, as well as being activists, lecturers, and suffragists, and the book includes interviews with students who came from around the country to attend these groundbreaking, historic schools. 606 $aAfrican American women educators$zSouthern States$vBiography 606 $aAfrican American educators$zSouthern States$vBiography 606 $aAfrican American women civil rights workers$vBiography 606 $aAfrican Americans$xEducation$zSouthern States 606 $aAfrican Americans$xCivil rights$zSouthern States$xHistory 606 $aCivil rights movements$zSouthern States$xHistory 606 $aAfrican Americans$xSegregation$zSouthern States$xHistory 606 $aAfrican Americans$zSouthern States$xSocial conditions 607 $aSouthern States$xSocial conditions 607 $aSouthern States$xRace relations$xHistory 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aAfrican American women educators 615 0$aAfrican American educators 615 0$aAfrican American women civil rights workers 615 0$aAfrican Americans$xEducation 615 0$aAfrican Americans$xCivil rights$xHistory. 615 0$aCivil rights movements$xHistory. 615 0$aAfrican Americans$xSegregation$xHistory. 615 0$aAfrican Americans$xSocial conditions. 676 $a370.922 700 $aMcCluskey$b Audrey Thomas$0997746 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910463293603321 996 $aA forgotten sisterhood$92288160 997 $aUNINA
