Book Description
Woodrow Wilson was president when I was born. He was reelected in 1916 as a peace candidate, which was the same year my mother brought me to Hume, Virginia to live with my grandfather, Elder Phillip Washington. Elder Washington was the third pastor of the Mount Morris Baptist Church. President Wilson tried to mediate between the warring nations; but when the Germans resumed unrestricted submarine warfare in 1917, Wilson brought the United States into what is now believed to have been a war that made the world safe for democracy. You may think this is a bit of abstract history, but it actually parallels my life in an odd way. You see, I was born on October 18, 1913 in Washington, DC, and my grandfather didnt like me at all (he was at war) but when my mother brought me to him in 1916, my innocence brought peace to our family. You see, I reminded him too much of my father and he refused to allow my parents to marry.

Gender and Social Movements
Author: Bahati M. Kuumba
Publisher: Rowman Altamira
ISBN: 0759116954
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 203
Book Description
Do men and women experience participation in social movements differently? Are gender roles reproduced or undermined during a struggle for liberation? In this brief text examining gender roles in social movements, M. Bahati Kuumba shows how liberation struggles are viewed through women's eyes and how gender affects women's mobilization, strategies, and outcomes in social movement organizations. Using two well-known examples, the American civil rights movement and the South African national liberation movement, Kuumba documents the circumscribed roles of women, the unheralded role of movement leaders such as Ella Baker and Frances Baard, and how gender affected movement activities and results. Gender and Social Movements is the ideal text to introduce a sophisticated view of race and gender into social movement courses.
