A Black Women's History of the United States is a Must Study for greater understanding

This is an absolute study for all Americans. While it may be sensitive for many readers, it should be studied for a greater understanding. Group study is recommended. This is a well researched, well written book that should be included in every social studies curriculum. It is a perfect compliment to any study/read about understanding racism and it's root in the American society. This reading also compliments any read/study of the Jim Crow south, the works of the civil rights era, the Black Panthers and women in the political struggle and beyond.
