"Lifting as We Climb" highlights the overlooked role of African American women in the suffrage movement, emphasizing their fight for voting rights and racial equality amid pervasive racial and gender prejudices. The book shares stories of influential Black women activists, including Mary Church Terrell, Anna Julia Cooper, and Ida B. Wells, who organized their own movements and challenged societal exclusion. Author Evette Dionne uncovers a vital, underrepresented chapter in American history, connecting past struggles to ongoing activism.
