In Search of Sisterhood: Delta Sigma Theta and the Challenge of the Black Sorority Movement, provides the history of the largest African American women's organization. Delta Sigma Theta helped the increasing involvement of black women in political, economic, and social affairs during a time when liberal arts education was viewed as futile, treacherous, and unrealistic for African Americans.
Giddings further explores that the organization was not created for racial goals, but to change and benefit the individual. Delta Sigma Theta sought to bring African American women together as sisters and confront the contentious issues that women endure. According to Giddings, Delta Sigma Theta is a "compelling reflection of black women's aspirations for themselves and for society."
