She devoted her life to advancing equal social, economic, and political rights for blacks. She distinguished herself by creating lasting institutions that trained black women for visible and expanding public leadership roles. Few have been as effective in the development of women's leadership for group advancement. Despite her accomplishments, the means, techniques, and actions Bethune employed in fighting for equality have been widely misinterpreted. Mary McLeod Bethune and Black Women's Political Activism seeks to remedy the misconceptions surrounding this important political figure. Joyce A. Hanson shows that the choices Bethune made often appear contradictory, unless one understands that she was a transitional figure with one foot in the nineteenth century and the other in the twentieth. Bethune, who lived from 1875 to 1955, struggled to reconcile her nineteenth-century notions of women's moral superiority with the changing political realities of the twentieth century. She used two conceptually distinct levels of activism-one nonconfrontational and designed to slowly undermine systemic racism, the other openly confrontational and designed to challenge the most overt discrimination-in her efforts to achieve equality.   Hanson uses a wide range of never- or little-used primary sources and adds a significant dimension to the historical discussion of black women's organizations by such scholars as Elsa Barkley Brown, Sharon Harley, and Rosalyn Terborg-Penn. The book extends the current debate about black women's political activism in recent work by Stephanie Shaw, Evelyn Brooks-Higginbotham, and Glenda Elizabeth Gilmore. Examining the historical evolution of African American women's activism in the critical period between 1920 and 1950, a time previously characterized as "doldrums" for both feminist and civil rights activity, Mary McLeod Bethune and Black Women's Political Activism is important for understanding the centrality of black women to the political fight for social, economic, and racial justice. 517 3 $aMary McLeod Bethune and Black women's political activism 606 $aAfrican American women political activists$vBiography 606 $aAfrican American women educators$vBiography$vJuvenile literature 606 $aAfrican American women social reformers$vBiography$vJuvenile literature 606 $aAfrican American women$xPolitical activity$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aAfrican Americans$xPolitics and government$y20th century 606 $aAfrican Americans$xCivil rights$xHistory$y20th century 615 0$aAfrican American women political activists 615 0$aAfrican American women educators 615 0$aAfrican American women social reformers 615 0$aAfrican American women$xPolitical activity$xHistory 615 0$aAfrican Americans$xPolitics and government 615 0$aAfrican Americans$xCivil rights$xHistory 676 $a370/.92 676 $aB 700 $aHanson$b Joyce Ann$01809930 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910963662803321 996 $aMary McLeod Bethune & Black women's political activism$94360969 997 $aUNINA LEADER 04204nam 22006375 450 001 9910484901503321 005 20251113210303.0 010 $a981-15-1514-X 024 7 $a10.1007/978-981-15-1514-9 035 $a(CKB)4100000010118436 035 $a(DE-He213)978-981-15-1514-9 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC6026476 035 $a(PPN)242843557 035 $a(EXLCZ)994100000010118436 100 $a20200117d2020 u| 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurnn|008mamaa 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 10$aClass Groups of Number Fields and Related Topics /$fedited by Kalyan Chakraborty, Azizul Hoque, Prem Prakash Pandey 205 $a1st ed. 2020. 210 1$aSingapore :$cSpringer Nature Singapore :$cImprint: Springer,$d2020. 215 $a1 online resource (XII, 178 p. 6 illus.) 311 08$a981-15-1513-1 327 $a1.

It discusses the fundamental research problems that arise in the study of class groups of number fields and introduces new techniques and tools to study these problems. Topics in this book include class groups and class numbers of number fields, units, the Kummer?Vandiver conjecture, class number one problem, Diophantine equations, Thue equations, continued fractions, Euclidean number fields, heights, rational torsion points on elliptic curves, cyclotomic numbers, Jacobi sums, and Dedekind zeta values. This book is a valuable resource for undergraduate and graduate students of mathematics as well as researchers interested in class groups of number fields and their connections to other branches of mathematics. New researchers to the field will also benefit immensely from the diverse problems discussed. All the contributing authors are leading academicians, scientists, researchers, and scholars. 606 $aNumber theory 606 $aGroup theory 606 $aDifferential equations 606 $aAlgebraic fields 606 $aPolynomials 606 $aNumber Theory 606 $aGroup Theory and Generalizations 606 $aDifferential Equations 606 $aField Theory and Polynomials 615 0$aNumber theory. 615 0$aGroup theory. 615 0$aDifferential equations. 615 0$aAlgebraic fields. 615 0$aPolynomials. 615 14$aNumber Theory. 615 24$aGroup Theory and Generalizations. 615 24$aDifferential Equations. 615 24$aField Theory and Polynomials. 676 $a512.74 702 $aChakraborty$b Kalyan$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aHoque$b Azizul$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aPandey$b Prem Prakash$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910484901503321 996 $aClass Groups of Number Fields and Related Topics$92311006 997 $aUNINA
