In this unique antidote to public perception, Kathleen F. Slevin and C. Ray Wingrove focus on the experiences of an unusual group of pioneers: one of the first generations of African American women to work as white-collar professionals, retire in considerable comfort, and remain actively and fruitfully involved, as older women, in their respective communities.\nThrough the voices of these women, we come to understand the impact of social systems on individual lives and to appreciate how the legacies provided these wome.
