Abstract

The life and writings of Anna Julia Haywood Cooper represent her 'voice' as educator, feminist, historian, linguist, scholar, social activist, and writer. She has also been described by the many roles she undertook: human rights advocate, lecturer, principal, professor, scholar, teacher, university president, and writer. As contemporary as the 'voice' of Cooper appears at the dawn of the twenty-first century, to truly appreciate her life and career it is imperative to understand it within the socio-historical context in which it evolved. However, in 1867, at the age of 8 she enrolled in the St Augustine's Normal School and Collegiate Institute, a religious school built on 110 acres of land owned by the Haywood family of Raleigh, according to Cooper biographer Louise Hutchinson. Anna Julia Cooper also learned many life lessons from her experiences at St Augustine's including her commitment to excellence and an uncompromising faith.
