      abstract = {A Nation Can Rise No Higher Than Its Women: African  American Muslim Women in the Nation of Islam, 1950-1975  challenges traditional interpretations of African American  women who joined the Original Nation of Islam during the  Civil Right-Black Power era. Using a wealth of academic  research and firsthand accounts, Jeffries thoroughly  debunks the popular opinion that women were not influential  in the Nation of Islam, revealing instead that they were  heralded in the movement. Women provided a clear, and often  sought after voice in the advancement of not only the  Nation, but the rise of Black pride.},
