However, I did not find the end to be entirely satisfying and I had a heck of a time keeping up with the plot. This is not a shock, since the book features lesbian pirates and giant squid and thus has “Carrie Bait” written all over it. ![]()

This, in turn, provides a starting point for developing robust knowledge of and empathy for the experiences of marginalized people-past and present. Coming of age in Mississippi is a book written by Anne Moody. Specifically, Moody's memoir provides a rich backdrop to deeply engage with: (1) how race works to shape material consequences and human welfare (2) the experiences of Black women during and prior to the Civil Rights Movement and (3) the limits of the Movement's "success." This study reveals how history students demonstrated understanding of the nuanced, intersectional experiences of one Black American woman to better understand the complexities of the Civil Rights Movement (CRM). In this paper, the author outlines the results of a research study conducted on one class cohort, focusing on the impacts of teaching Black women's history through Anne Moody's 1968 memoir, "Coming of Age in Mississippi," on their understandings of race and the experiences of Black women. Coming of Age in Mississippi: The Classic Autobiography of Growing Up Poor and Black in the Rural South is written by Anne Moody and published by Dell. ![]() |
