Many historical and contemporary black women have received little or no recognition for their important contributions. Their stories and achievements have been left out of the pages of most history books. Great Women in the Struggle presents the inspiring stories of more than 80 black women in this comprehensive volume. Freedom fights, educators, writers, athletes, entrepreneurs, policy makers, scientists and more-the wide range of accomplishments celebrated here makes Great women in the Struggle a must-have resource for readers of all ages.
