Come Along with Me

An African American Woman's Journey for Justice

The first Black woman graduate of the University of South Carolina recounts a life of activism and service

Come Along with Me is a compelling memoir of resilience, activism, and breaking barriers in the causes of health equity and social justice. Henrie Monteith Treadwell recounts her personal and legal struggles to become the first African American student admitted to the University of South Carolina since Reconstruction, a pivotal moment in civil rights history. More than a personal narrative, the book is a call to action, inspiring young people of color—especially women—to push forward against systemic injustices.

Through reflections on her experiences and accomplishments in health advocacy, policy reform, and social justice, Treadwell highlights the continued struggles for racial and gender equity in higher education, health care, and beyond. In Come Along with Me, Treadwell underscores the importance of acknowledging historical injustices while actively working toward a more inclusive and just society.For anyone committed to change—whether in education, health care, philanthropy, or public policy—these pages provide rich evidence that progress is possible when individuals challenge barriers, demand justice, and open doors for future generations. Treadwell's memoir is a testament to the power of perseverance and the necessity of collective action in shaping a better world.
