What a Mighty Power We Can Be: African American Fraternal Groups and the Struggle for Racial Equality - Princeton Studies in American Politics
Theda Skocpol
From the nineteenth through the mid-twentieth centuries, millions of Americans participated in fraternal associations - self-selecting brotherhoods and sisterhoods that provided aid to members, enacted group rituals, and engaged in community service. This book shows how African American groups played key roles in the struggle for civil rights.
