Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Long before it became the slogan of the Obama campaign, Dr. Dorothy Ferebee (1898-1980) lived by the motto "Yes, We Can". An African American elite descended from lawyers, journalists, politicians, and possibly a white governor of Virginia, Ferebee was an obstetrician and civil rights activist from Washington, D.C. She was articulate, attractive, and effective as well as relentlessly self-promoting and tragically flawed. At a time when African Americans faced Jim Crow segregation, menial job opportunities and lynch mobs, Dorothy Ferebee advised presidents on civil rights and assisted foreign governments on public health issues. In high heels and a silk dress, she stood up to gun toting plantation owners, determined to bring health care to sharecroppers during the Great Depression through her famous Mississippi Health Project. She was president of the powerful National Council of Negro Women in the nascent civil rights era and later ran the 200,000 member Alpha Kappa Alpha black service sorority. A household name in black America for 40 years, known to presidents from FDR through Jimmy Carter, Ferebee was the media darling of the thriving black press. Ironically, her fame faded and her relevance waned as African Americans achieved the political power for which she fought. In She Can Bring Us Home: Dr. Dorothy Boulding Ferebee, Civil Rights Pioneer, Diane Kiesel brings Ferebee's extraordinary story of struggle and sacrifice to a new generation"--Publisher's description.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Documenting key feminists who ignited the second wave women's movement Barbara J. Love’s Feminists Who Changed America, 1963-1975 will be the first comprehensive directory to document many of the founders and leaders (including both well-known and grassroots organizers) of the second wave women's movement. It tells the stories of more than two thousand individual women and a few notable men who together reignited the women's movement and made permanent changes to entrenched customs and laws. The biographical entries on these pioneering feminists represent their many factions, all parts of the country, all races and ethnic groups, and all political ideologies. Nancy Cott's foreword discusses the movement in relation to the earlier first wave and presents a brief overview of the second wave in the context of other contemporaneous social movements.

Book excerpt: Ranging from such pioneers as Elizabeth Blackwell, Mary L. Bonney, Kate Barnard, Mariana Bracetti, and Amelia Stone Quinton, to contemporary figures such as Iola M. Pohocsucut Hayden, Rosa Parks, Angela Davis, and Shirley Chisholm, these 68 women have worked passionately for civil rights in the United States.

A short biographical sketch of each woman is provided, listing place of birth, schools, important events and achievements, children, parents, siblings and individuals who had a significant influence on her work.
