520 |a The civil rights movement in the United States elicited a variety of responses from communities of women religious. The Dominican Sisters of Springfield, Illinois, founders, in 1946, of St. Dominic-Jackson Memorial Hospital, Jackson, Mississippi, resolved to work within the framework of legal separation of the races to improve the treatment of black patients. Although part of the dominant white system, the sisters simultaneously resisted racist practices in significant ways.
