متن يادداشت
"Maida Springer is a biography of a leading figure in African American labor politics that spans the fields of women's studies, African American studies, and labor history. It is the first book to demonstrate the pivotal role of the work of an African American woman on African labor and nationalist movements. Richards explores the ways in which pan-Africanism, racism, sexism and anti-Communism affected Springer's political development, her labor activism, and her relationship with labor leaders in the AFL-CIO, the International Confederation of Free Trade Unions (ICFTU), and in African unions. Springer's life experiences and work reveal the complex nature of black struggles for equality and justice.
متن يادداشت
"Yevette Richard's biography of Maida Springer uniquely connects pan-Africanism, national and international labor relations, the Cold War, and African American, labor, women's, and civil rights histories. In addition to documenting Springer's role in international labor relations, the biography provides a larger view of a whole range of political leaders and social movements."--BOOK JACKET.

She also understood that charges of Communism were often used as a way to thwart African American demands for social justice. She found herself in the unenviable position of promoting to Africans the ideals of American democracy from which she was excluded from fully enjoying.".
