Joan Marie Johnson investigates how the desire to create a distinctive southern identity influenced black and white clubwomen at the turn of the 20th century and motivated their participation in efforts at social reform. Often doing similar work for different reasons, both groups emphasized history, memory, and education. Focusing particularly on South Carolina clubs, Southern Ladies, New Women shows that white women promoted a culture of segregation in which southern equaled white and black equaled inferior.

Joan Marie Johnson, visiting lecturer in the Department of History at Northeastern Illinois University, Chicago, is the editor of Southern Women at Vassar: The Poppenheim Family Letters, 1882-1916.
