About this book

A Band of Noble Women follows two strands of activism that ran side by side between the world wars: the women's peace movement, and the club and social reform movement led by Black women. Melinda Plastas brings them together.

The author shows how African American and white women built new political alliances that pushed back against Jim Crow segregation. Better race relations, they believed, were a necessary step toward world peace.
