Audio Books →Formidable American Women and the Fight for Equality, 1920-2020 [Audiobook]

They wanted to protect their communities from racial violence and discrimination. Theirs was not solely a women's movement. White women wanted to be equal to white men. They sought equal legal rights, political power, safeguards for working women and immigrants, and an end to confining social structures. There were also many white women who opposed any advance for any women. In this riveting narrative, Dr. Elisabeth Griffith integrates the fight by white and Black women to achieve equality. Previously their parallel struggles for social justice have been presented separately-as white or Black topics-or covered narrowly, through only certain individuals, decades, or incidents. Formidable provides a sweeping, century-long perspective and an expansive cast of change agents.
