Friendship Club Cook Book
FOREWARD
The Friendship Club is an inter-racial women's social club. It wasfounded two years ago in Madison by a group of Negro and white women,who felt that in developing mutual understanding among themselves, theywere thus answering a most grave result of segregation—ignorance.
In the course of its short history, the club has brought together white,Negro, Chinese, Jewish, Catholic and Protestant women; working andprofessional women, students and teachers, mothers and housewives.
In informal gatherings, at our pot-luck suppers, sewing bees, teas andcoffee hours, the women of the Friendship Club have gained insight intoeach others problems and re-affirmed their confidence that if peopleof different races, creeds and national origins would but have theopportunity to know and appreciate each other, it would be a long stepforward towards solving some of the trying problems which face us all.
This little book is a token of our friendship and faith in each otherand in all people.
