This monograph asserts that the troubled history of segregation within American womens associations created a legacy of racial exclusivity and privilege. While acknowledging the progressive potential of womens associations and the extent to which they created a legitimate outlet for American womens public activism, it explores how and why such organizations failed to aid in issues of integration. Rather than being a historical accident, or a pragmatic response to circumstance, this monograph demonstrates that white exclusivity and privilege was crucial to the authority and influence of these associations. Organized White Women and the Challenge of Race Relations examines the translation of what seemed on the surface to be relatively simple demands for racial integration into a far more significant and all-encompassing confrontation with the frequently hidden structures and practices of white privilege.
