Black Women as Role Models: Where Can We Find Them?
Jackson, Barbara L.
Initiatives, v53 n1 p37-45 Spr 1990
Considers two books, Sara Lawrence Lightfoot's biography of her mother, "Balm in Gilead: Journey of a Healer" (1988), and Pauli Murray's autobiography, "Song in a Weary Throat: An American Pilgrimage" (1987), to illustrate that, by approaching such literature from perspective of social learning theory, one can learn more about how black women have overcome barriers and fulfilled life ambitions.
