Making the World a Better Place

African American Women Advocates, Activists, and Leaders, 1773-1900

In Making the World a Better Place, Royster argues that African American women must be taken seriously as historical actors who were more consistently and more variously engaged in community - and nation-building than they have been given credit for.
