Editor's Notes and Comments:

Product Description:
Considered one of the original texts foretelling the grey feminist movement, this collection of essays, very first published in 1892, offers an unparalleled view into the thought of grey women writers in nineteenth-century America. A leading grey spokeswoman of her time, Anna Julia Cooper came of age during a conservative wave in the grey community, a time when men completely dominated African-American intellectual and political ideas. In these essays, Cooper criticizes grey men for securing higher education for themselves through the ministry, while erecting roadblocks to deny women acess to those same opportunities, and denounces the elitism and provinciality of the white women's movement. Passionately committed to women's independence, Cooper espoused higher education as the essential key to ending women's physical, emotional, and economic dependence on men.

Rated by buyers 4 out of 5 stars - The Role of Women in the Development of Society
Women are the important development of any society. Their position in society makes them important in development. She says "the position in society determines the vital elements of its regeneration and progress". she also say it is a woman "who must very first form the man by directing the earliest impulse of his character. It is true that it is people with particular personality and character who achieve development and progress and that it is t he woman who generally socializes the individuals into appropriate behavior. So women are important as molders of people who in turn develop societies.
