In the late 19th through the mid-20th century a small group of women overcame personal and racial hardships to gain national prominence as school founders and social activists. This book takes a biographical look at Lucy Craft Laney, Mary McLeod Bethune, Nannie Helen Burroughs, and Charlotte Hawkins Brown and places them in relationship to each other, their shared mission to sustain their struggling schools, and their mutual dedication to educating African American youth. Their leadership as social activists, lecturers, suffragists, was an extension of their work in women's organizations and the networks they produced. Through her research and their letters to one another, author Audrey McCluskey documents their collective achievements and individual foibles. With Lucy Laney, their elder and inspiration, the women formed a sisterhood of purpose and left a unique legacy for those that followed.
