I did read this before it was archived, and left a review. I don't know why the review is not here.

I did enjoy this book and reading about Dovey's life.

This is an expert telling of vital history, a necessary piece of documentary history for so many milestones. The story of Dovey Roundtree's career as an Army WAAC, attorney, and ordained minister intersects with the civil rights journey of well known American figures and her role in them is a crucial part of the narrative. Reverend Roundtree's narrative brings us into history, and the reality of powerful figures like Dr. Mary Bethune and Eleanor Roosevelt are as clearly illustrated as the excruciating scenes of racism Roundtree and her family experienced. To read this book is to deepen your understanding of American experiences and emerge with a finer sense of the need for equality and justice for all..

Mighty Justice is a profoundly inspiring story about the sheer heights of human fortitude. Dovey Johnson Roundtree faced opposition, racism, and misogyny at every turn, but she didn't let any of that stop her from achieving her goals. Best known as one of the lawyers behind a landmark bus desegregation case from 1955, Roundtree also had several other notable impacts on civil rights in the US. Sadly, many people are unfamiliar with her name and story. Hopefully, this book will change things.
