<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>The author pays tribute to a century of black women defending themselves against racism and gender prejudice while trying to exist as individuals in an ever-changing society.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><em>Too Heavy a Load</em> celebrates this century's rich history of black women defending themselves, from Ida B. Wells to Anita Hill. Although most prominently a history of the century-long struggle against racism and male chauvinism, Deborah Gray White also movingly illuminates black women's painful struggle to hold their racial and gender identities intact while feeling the inexorable pull of the agendas of white women and black men. Finally, it tells the larger and lamentable story of how Americans began this century measuring racial progress by the status of black women but gradually came to focus on the status of black men-the masculinization of America's racial consciousness. Writing with the same magisterial eye for historical detail as in her best-selling <em>Ar'n't I a Woman</em>, Deborah Gray White has given us a moving and definitive history of struggle and freedom.</p>
