Many of the early students also brought their slaves to the college with them. Upon Emancipation some of the African Americans of the community--mostly women--stayed on as servants forming what is now called the Hollins Community. Although the servants played an integral part in the college's success students were strongly discouraged from acknowledging them as people. Rules forbidding any 'familiarity' with the servants perpetuated a prejudicial attitude toward the African American community that would persist well into the 1940s. Determined to give voice to the African American community that served as the silent workforce for Hollins College Ethel Morgan Smith herself a graduate of Hollis College succeeded in finding individuals to step forward and tell their stories."--jacket ; VG/VG Columbia : University of Missouri Press, 2000. hardcover
