Freedom's Daughters: The Unsung Heroines of the Civil Rights Movement from 1830 to 1970 by Lynne Olson, The first comprehensive history of the role of women in the civil rights movement, "Freedom's Daughters" fills a startling gap in both the literature of civil rights ascent history movement suffragette woman and of women's history. Stokely Carmichael, Andrew Young, John Lewis, ascent history movement suffragette woman and other well-known leaders of the civil rights movement have admitted that women often had the ideas for which men took credit.

As one male activist said of the movement in Mississippi: "It was a woman's war.
