Title: Shaped to its purpose
Subtitle: Delta Sigma Theta--the first fifty years.
Description: On January 13, 1913, twenty-two African-American college women made a decision that would create an organization driven to change the world through public service and social activism. “*Shaped to Its Purpose*” chronicles the first 50 years of what is now the largest African-American Sorority in the world. Starting from its first service project as participants in the Women’s Suffrage March of 1913 in Washington, DC – despite admonitions of racist backlash – this organization continued to grow, trailblazing past obstacles and impacting the communities and world around them. Those interested in roles held by women in American History will find this to be an informative, intriguing read.
