| 520 | |a "In the first decades of the twentieth century, print-centered organizations spread rapidly across the United States, providing more women than ever before with opportunities to participate in public life. While most organizations at the time were run by and for white men, women-both Black and white-were able to reshape their lives and their social worlds through their participation in these institutions. Organizing Women traces the histories of middle-class women-rural and urban, white and Black, married and unmarried-who used public and private institutions of print to tell their stories, expand their horizons, and further their ambitions. Drawing from a diverse range of examples, Christine Pawley introduces readers to women who ran branch libraries and library schools in Chicago and Madison, built radio empires from their midwestern farms, formed reading clubs, and published newsletters.
