Published by National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, New York, NY, 1976
Wraps. DeLoache, James I. (illustrator). Reprint. Fifth printing [stated]. Includes illustrations. Unpaginated (approximately 40 pages). Some illustration have some color. This work was a result of the NAACP centennial commemoration of the Emancipation Proclamation. The biographical sketches were distributed to approximately 300 newspapers and then published as a collection. NAACP executive Mildred Bond Roxborough was born on June 30, 1926, in Brownsville, Tennessee, one of three daughters of college sweethearts Ollie and Mattye Tollette Bond. Roxborough s family background included a tradition of African American empowerment; her mother s family founded Tollette, Arkansas, which was a post-Reconstruction, all-African American town, while her own parents chartered Brownsville, Tennesee s first chapter of the NAACP. At the age of nine, Roxborough began selling subscriptions to The Crisis, the official publication of the NAACP. Good. Front cover scuffed. Cover has some other wear and soiling.
