Dive into the poignant tale of Iola Leroy, a free-born, mixed-race woman who navigated the complexities of identity by passing as white.

Along the way, she fiercely advocates for the upliftment of African Americans, confronting the pressing issues of race and gender during the antebellum and post-Civil War periods. Iola Leroy is a profound exploration of identity, resilience, and the socio-political ramifications of passing. (Summary by James K. White)Copyright Nature and Animals 世界 社会科学 科学
