Throwing Off the Cloak of Privilege: White Southern Women Activists in the Civil Rights Era - Southern Dissent
Gail S. Murray
While playing the southern lady for the white establishment, thousands of mostly middle-class, middle-aged, married white women became grassroots activists in America's civil rights movement. The essays in this collection tell who these women were, why they became committed to racial justice, and how they organised to change southern society.
