Maria Baldwin's Worlds
Maria Baldwin (1856–1922) held a special place in the racially divided society of her time, as a highly respected educator at a largely white New England school and an activist who carried on the radical spirit of the Boston area's internationally renowned abolitionists from a generation earlier. African American sociologist Adelaide Cromwell called Baldwin "the lone symbol of Negro progress in education in the greater Boston area" during her lifetime. Baldwin used her respectable position to fight alongside more radical activists like William Monroe Trotter for full citizenship for fellow members of the black community. And, in her professional and personal life, she negotiated and challenged dominant white ideas about black womanhood. In Maria Baldwin's Worlds, Kathleen Weiler reveals both Baldwin's victories and what fellow activist W. E. B. Du Bois called her "quiet courage" in everyday life, in the context of the wider black freedom struggle in New England.
Crimson and Scarlet
This fascinating saga of four generations spanning 100 years and narrated by the town historian centers on the families living in a small Southern town. Although this seems like the typical community, dark factors are at play. Crimson and Scarlet delves into the unknown facts that have shaped the families living in the fictional town of Southside. Michael Browning, a young minister, is pursuing Charlotte Cote, a bad girl turned evangelist. However, there is trouble in their relationship. While there is love in Southside, there is also greed, drug dealing, larceny, and even murder. The idiosyncrasies and weaknesses planted in each family have taken root as generational curses, which culminate in crisis. Is the town indeed cursed, or can it overcome the sins of the past to be reborn?
