Devoted wife, White House maid, reluctant activist
A stirring novel inspired by the life of an unsung heroine, and real-life crusader, Lizzie McDuffie, who as a maid in FDRs White House spearheaded the Civil Rights movement of her time.
Im just a college-educated Southerner with a passion for books. My husband says Im too bold, too sharp, too unrelenting. Others say I helped spearhead the Civil Rights movement of our time. President Roosevelt says Im too spunky and spirited for my own good.
Who am I?
I am Elizabeth Lizzie McDuffie.
And this is my story
When Lizzie McDuffie, maid to Eleanor and Franklin D. Roosevelt, boldly proclaimed herself FDRs Secretary-On-Colored-Peoples-Affairs, she became more than just a maidshe became the Presidents eyes and ears into the Black community. After joining the White House to work alongside her husband, FDRs personal valet, Lizzie managed to become completely indispensable to the Roosevelt family. Never shy about pointing out injustices, she advocated for the needs and rights of her fellow African Americans when those in the White House blocked access to the President.
Following the life of Lizzie McDuffie throughout her time in the White House as she championed the rights of everyday Americans and provided access to the most powerful man in the country, Let Us March On looks at the unsung and courageous crusader who is finally getting the recognition she so richly deserves.
