Examines attitudes toward the gender, class, and citizenship of African American activists in Louisiana and women’s roles in the campaign for civil rights in the state. Lee Sartain argues it was the women working behind the scenes in Louisiana’s branches of the NAACP who were the most crucial factor in the organisation’s efficiency and survival.
