KATIE McCABE
The product of a 12-year collaboration between Dovey Johnson Roundtree and Katie McCabe, this richly voiced first-person memoir traces Dovey's journey from impoverished child in the Jim Crow South to champion for the voiceless in the Nation's Capital.
"Dovey Johnson Roundtree set a new path for women and proved that the vision and perseverance of a single individual can turn the tides of history."
