From Gates Scholar and First Lady of Stockton, CA, Anna Malaika Tubbs, comes The Three Mothers, the first book to celebrate the three great women who raised and shaped America's most pivotal heroes: MLK, Malcolm X, and James Baldwin. Much has been written about the Berdis Baldwin's son James, about Alberta King's son Martin, and Louise Little's son Malcolm. But virtually nothing has been said about the extraordinary women who raised them, who themselves were all born within six years of each other, all contending with the very specific prejudices faced by Black women during Jim Crow. Berdis, Alberta, and Louise all possessed an unrelenting belief in education--from Louise asking her children to read to her from the dictionary, to Berdis's faith and encouragement in her son's preternaturally gifted writing, to Alberta's unwavering dedication to Martin's higher education. These women used their strength and motherhood to push their sons toward greatness, all with a conviction that all hu
