Through It All, is the inspiring tale of what it was like for an African American woman to work in a white, male-dominated workplace in the 1960s, 1970s and 1980s. You'll follow on a journey through those racially turbulent years from the outhouse in the south---Georgia and Alabama --- to Maryland's courthouse---the municipal court, the District Court, the Supreme Bench and the Circuit Court --- to the board room of a successful business enterprise. Intimidation and corruption in Maryland's politics can't stop Barbara A. Robinson's journey toward her successful career as a Maryland state senator, as she weaves her way past racism, sexism, discrimination, gender-biases, intimidation, ageism, harassment, corruption, the integration of the restrooms in Maryland's court system and the me too movement era. The book highlights the negative events of a state agency that was established to provide services to Maryland's families and some of Maryland's women trailblazers who forged a path of endurance and left a legacy of hope.
