An Activist's Journey: The Autobiography of Kathryn M. Johnson

The amazing, travel-filled adventures of a woman ahead of her time, who drove alone in a Model T all over the country, setting up chapters for the fledgling NAACP and later selling books by Black authors to educate Black families about their contributions to American culture. She went to France in WW I to support Black soldiers in the segregated armed forces, and eventually settled in Chicago where she continued to fight for equality and justice in the United States and several African nations.

This inspiring narrative not only honors Kathryn’s legacy but underscores the importance of education and storytelling in the fight for equality. So relevant for our times, the pages practically turn themselves.
