Thanks to all who made textbook suggestions.

And the winners were (the envelope, please)...

Coramae Richey Mann & Marjorie S. Zatz, Images of Color, Images of Crime

along with

Joanne Belknap, The Invisible Woman

The class is underway, and I am scheduled to teach it again in the fall,
so if these books do not work out you will probably hear from me again.
