Faithful to the Task at Hand by Carroll Ll Miller
In this long overdue biography, Carroll L. L. Miller and Anne S. Pruitt-Logan tell the remarkable story of Slowe's steadfast determination working her way through college, earning respect as a teacher and dean, and standing up to Howard's President and Board of Trustees in insisting on equal treatment of women. Along the way, the authors weave together recurring themes in African American history: the impact of racism, the importance of education, the role of sports, and gender inequality."The realization of this work is no small featIt's a testament to how the tenacious Slowe made the grade and altered the educational landscape." — Phi Kappa Phi Forum
