Signed and inscribed on half title page 8vo size clothbound hardcover with dust jacket; 306 pages From back: "During the last two decades of the 19th century black Baptist women increasingly challenged such examples of gender inequality. Working within the orthodoxy of the church they turned to the Bible to argue for their rights - thus holding men accountable to the same text that authenticated their arguments for racial equality. In drawing upon the bible - the most respected source within their community - they found scriptural precedents for expanding women's rights. Black women expressed discontent with popular conceptions regarding "woman's place" in the church and society at large."
