About this listen

The fight for democracy and social justice is a collective, ongoing project. And those fighting for justice today cannot afford to forget the remarkable accomplishments of Black women who were activists in the Civil Rights movement. Their lives and accomplishments are a testament to the power of activism and to the enduring and evolving struggle for equality.

In her Audible Original, Black Women of the Civil Rights Movement, Dr. Wendi Manuel-Scott illuminates the lives of six extraordinary Black women—most of whom, regrettably, remain unknown to many.

For example, you’ll meet Gloria Richardson, who concentrated her efforts against segregation in her hometown of Cambridge, Maryland, and created the first significant grassroots movement in the American Civil Rights struggle led by a woman. Or take Mary Church Terrell, whose politically active career spanned nine decades and whose life and work are a shining example of Black women’s leadership in the early 20th century. Equal parts educational and inspirational, these six lectures are a stirring lesson in the importance of recovering lost stories and amplifying marginalized voices.
