reviewed Freedom's Daughters: The Unsung Heroines of the Civil Rights Movement from 1830 to 1970 on November 20, 2008 Freedom's Daughters: The Unsung Heroines of the Civil Rights Movement from 1830 to 1970
What amazing women!! It's a shame MLK gets disproportionate credit for the actual organizing and dirty work during the Civil Rights Movement that was greatly done by women. In my 1960s history class in college I learned a lot about the sexism in both the anti-war and Civil Rights movements of the 1960s (ie men not listening to women in the first place but when women had good ideas or led important grassroots efforts, then the men taking credit) and this book made that real.
I also found it very inspiring to read about what ordinary people were able to accomplish to get laws and attitudes changed. Their bravery is amazing.
