Requests:  0 Summary:  "A privileged white girl in conservative, segregated Virginia was expected to adopt a willful blindness to the inequities of race and the constraints of gender. For Drew Gilpin, the acceptance of both female subordination and racial hierarchy proved intolerable and galvanizing. Urged to become "well adjusted" and to fill the role of a poised young lady that her upbringing imposed, she found resistance was necessary for her survival. During the 1960s, through her love of learning and her active engagement in the civil rights, student, and antiwar movements, Drew forged a path of her own--one that would eventually lead her to become a historian of the very conflicts that were instrumental in shaping the world she grew up in. Culminating in the upheavals of 1968, Necessary Trouble captures a time of rapid change and fierce reaction in one young woman's life, tracing the transformations and aftershocks that we continue to grapple with today" --publisher's description.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status Due Date   Hawaii State Library Language, Literature & History 975.59809 Faust Fa Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Nonfiction 975.59809 Faust Fa Checked out 05/08/2024 Add Copy to MyList Kailua-Kona Public Library Adult Nonfiction 975.59809 Faust Fa Checked out 05/22/2024 Add Copy to MyList Kealakekua Public Library Adult Biography B Faust Fa Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Pearl City Public Library Adult Biography 975.59809 Faust Fa Checked In   Add Copy to MyList
