520 Uncovers the hidden role of girls and women in the
desegregation of American education The story of school
desegregation in the United States often begins in the mid
-twentieth-century South. Drawing on archival sources and
genealogical records, Kabria Baumgartner uncovers the
story's origins in the nineteenth-century Northeast and
identifies a previously overlooked group of activists:
African American girls and women. In their quest for
education, African American girls and women faced numerous
obstacles--from threats and harassment to violence. For
them, education was a daring undertaking that put them in
harm's way. Yet bold and brave young women such as Sarah
Harris, Sarah Parker Remond, Rosetta Morrison, Susan Paul,
and Sarah Mapps Douglass persisted. In Pursuit of
Knowledge argues that African American girls and women
strategized, organized, wrote, and protested for equal
school rights--not just for themselves, but for all. Their
activism gave rise to a new vision of womanhood: the
purposeful woman, who was learned, active, resilient, and
forward-thinking. Moreover, these young women set in
motion equal-school-rights victories at the local and
state level, and laid the groundwork for further action to
democratize schools in twentieth-century America. In this
thought-provoking book, Baumgartner demonstrates that the
confluence of race and gender has shaped the long history
of school desegregation in the United States right up to
the present
