Charissa J. Threat, "Nursing Civil Rights: Gender and Race in the Army Nurse Corps "
English | ISBN: 0252039203 | 2015 | 208 pages | EPUB | 1101 KB
In Nursing Civil Rights, Charissa J. Threat investigates the parallel battles against occupational segregation by African American women and white men in the U.S. Army.

Yet their stories defy the narrative that civil rights struggles inevitably arced toward social justice. Threat tells how progressive elements in the campaigns did indeed break down barriers in both military and civilian nursing.
