Solid hardcover.; "Black Women in White America is the first book to document the contributions and struggles of one of the most neglected segments of the American population. In their own words, Black women recound their defeats and victories in the fight against the malicious racism and sexism that have been and continue to be prevalent in our society. American Blacks ahve for centuries been subjected to a vicious form of racism, yet the ways in which their lives have answered the charges of laziness, promiscuity, and stupidity are seldom documented. In this book, Black women tell not only what it's like to be oppressed - as Blacks and as women - but also how they have managed to survive despite that oppression." ; Ex-Library; xxxvi, 630 pages .
