In this groundbreaking and important book, Danielle McGuire writes about the rape in 1944 of a 24-year-old mother and sharecropper, Recy Taylor, who strolled toward home after an evening of singing and praying at the Rock Hill Holiness Church in Abbeville, Alabama. Seven white men, armed with knives and shotguns, ordered the young woman into their green Chevrolet, raped her, and left her for dead. The president of the local NAACP branch office sent his best investigator and organizer to Abbeville. Her name was Rosa Parks.

Where black women before and now
Revisado: 05-24-22
This book was very informative. It was so unfair what black women has to endure rape by white men and how they felt that they had no rights. The end of the book grabbed me a lot. When President Obama was inaugurated into office and Michelle was next to him, meant a lot. But when Michelle Obama asked Ms Recy Taylor would she ever imagined a black First Lady in the office, that when I realized the fight of equal rights for black women is profound. Thank you for this book. I wish that our young black women would read this book.
