Many deal with southern women active in reform movements between the 1910s women's suffrage movement and the 1960s feminist movement and explore the interaction between the private lives and public activities of women representing various social classes and races. Interviewees include women involved in labor and workers' education movements; African American and white women active in the civil rights movement; and women who, in addition to their contributions to these reform movements, also pursued professional careers. |
