Black Neighbors: Race and the Limits of Reform in the American Settlement House Movement, 1890-1945 New edition
Elisabeth Lasch-Quinn
Analyses the reluctance of the mainstream settlement house movement to extend its programs to African American communities, which, Elisabeth Lasch-Quinn argues, were assisted instead by a variety of alternative organisations. Lasch-Quinn recasts the traditional definitions, periods, and regional divisions of settlement work and uncovers a vast settlement movement among African Americans.
