THE FIRST COMPREHENSIVE HISTORY OF THE VITAL ROLE
WOMEN -- BOTH BLACK AND WHITE -- PLAYED
IN THE CIVIL RIGHTS MOVEMENT

In this groundbreaking and absorbing book, credit finally goes where credit is due -- to the bold women who were crucial to the success of the civil rights movement. From the Montgomery bus boycott to the lunch counter sit-ins to the Freedom Rides, Lynne Olson skillfully tells the long-overlooked story of the extraordinary women who were among the most fearless, resourceful, and tenacious leaders of the civil rights movement.
Freedom's Daughters includes portraits of more than sixty women -- many until now forgotten and some never before written about -- from the key figures (Ida B. Wells, Eleanor Roosevelt, Ella Baker, and Septima Clark, among others) to some of the smaller players who represent the hundreds of women who each came forth to do her own small part and who together ultimately formed the mass movements that made the difference. Freedom's Daughters puts a human face on the civil rights struggle -- and shows that that face was often female.

Professional, functional, and cute!
Color: Pinkish Grey, Size: 14-Inch
I needed a backpack that looked professional and that wasn't massive. This fits my 15 inch laptop with room to spare. The back zipper portion is padded for extra laptop protection. I was surprised by the quality. It's my go-to bag for transporting my work stuff to and from the office.

Perfect Small-ish Business Bag
Color: Apricot, Size: 14-Inch
I have been on the search for a small business bag, that can go on. top of my luggage as well as look nice in the office and at meetings. That will still hold all of my things while keeping me organized. So what fits, I can put my 12.9" iPad, with case and Magic Keyboard in the spot for a laptop. I can also put my 8x10 spiral bound planner, a notebook, mouse, small cable case, pencil case, water bottle and purse pouch with all my essentials. So my water bottle does not fit inside the side bottle pockets, so I do have to put it inside the bag it's self, but that's a no issue. The shoulder straps seem sturdy enough and the color beige/cream looks nice with my neutral wardrobe. Overall I'm happy with the purchase. We'll see how it travels over the next year as I have quite a bit of traveling and work do to offsite this year. j

Stylish, High-Quality Backpack. A Great Upgrade from My Usual Black Bags!
Color: Pinkish Grey, Size: 14-Inch
I’m really impressed with this backpack. I usually stick to black bags, but I decided to try something different, and I’m so glad I did. The color is beautiful—unique without being too loud—and adds a nice pop. The quality of the material feels top-notch. It’s sturdy yet lightweight, and the stitching and zippers seem very durable. Overall, this backpack feels well thought out in both design and function. Highly recommend if you’re looking for something professional, stylish, and practical.
