Description:  1 online resource (336 pages) Requests:  0 Summary:  Takes the early 20th century and brings it to life, both in the South and in the Midwest. Ivoe Williams is a brilliant young woman who grows up in Texas, the child of emancipated slaves, and despite the obstacles she faces, manages to get a degree in journalism in Austin. But no newspapers will hire her because she is an African-American woman. Her frustration with the Jim Crow South causes her to uproot and move to Kansas City, where she and her lover, Ona, start a newspaper, the first female-run African-American newspaper, called "Jam! On the Vine" She uses this platform to examine segregation and the American prison system of the day, sometimes at great personal risk.   Copy/Holding information No Item Information
