Elizabeth (Lizzie) Beatrice Cooke Fouse (1875–1952) was a woman from Kentucky, dedicated to gaining equality for African American women on both local and national levels. She founded as well as became the head of many organizations, with the ultimate goal of ending discrimination. Her faith was critical to her activities in social and church-related clubs.〔Collier-Thomas, Bettye.〕〔(Jesus, Jobs, and Justice: African American Women and Religion ) (New York: Random House, 2010), 385.〕〔For more on the history of women's roles in Baptist churches, see (Evelyn Brooks Higginbotham, Righteous Discontent: the Women's Movement in the Black Baptist Church, 1880-1920 ). Mass.: Harvard University Press, 1993.〕 ==Background==
Fouse grew up in Lexington, Kentucky and graduated from the University of Cincinnati. She started her teaching career in 1893 in a segregated high school in Corydon, Indiana. She also taught penmanship to white students at Harrison County Institute, and played clarinet in a band though she was the only Black person. She married William Henry Fouse (1868–1944), a school principal, on August 10, 1898.〔( Who's Who of the Colored Race, Vol. 1 ), Frank Lincoln Mather, ed. (Gale Research Company, 1915), 106.〕
