Outline of Final Research Achievements

The study aims to position political statements made by African American women leaders, who overcame past traumatic memories of slavery and tackled race and gender prejudices, at the turn of the twentieth century within the history of black feminism. Among the black women leaders of the time, the actions and works of Mary Church Terrell, Ida B. Wells-Barnett, Anna Julia Cooper and Frances Ellen Watkins Harper were focused on. Although locally-organized women's clubs could not address political setbacks black women faced, these women leaders, most of whom had college educations, sent out radical messages and contributed to arousing women's political and social consciousness.
