The new woman of color : the collected writings of Fannie Barrier Williams, 1893-1918
Fannie Barrier Williams, Mary Jo Deegan (Editor, Writer of introduction)
"Fannie Barrier Williams made history as a controversial African American reformer in an era fraught with racial discrimination and injustice. She first came to prominence during the 1893 Columbian Exposition, where her powerful arguments for African American women's rights launched her career as a nationally renowned writer and orator. In her speeches, essays, and articles, Williams incorporated the ideas of Booker T. Washington and W.E.B. DuBois to create an interracial worldview dedicated to social equality and cultural harmony."
