Starting with teen protestors and moving on to the larger community an eventually a national stage, this campaign was contentious and helped to push along the voting rights act of 1965. Russell Freedman peppers the engaging, narrative style text with original photographs. I just read Turning 15 on the Road to Freedom which covers the same ground from a very personal, individual perspective. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña

HTML: In the early 1960s, tired of reprisals for attempting to register to vote, Selma's black community began to protest. The struggle received nationwide attention when Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. led a voting rights march in January, 1965, and was attacked by a segregationist. In February, the shooting of an unarmed demonstrator by an Alabama state trooper inspired a march from Selma to the state capital of Montgomery. The march got off to a horrific start on March 7 as law officers attacked peaceful demonstrators. Broadcast throughout the world, the violence attracted widespread outrage and spurred demonstrators to complete the march at any cost. On March 25, after several setbacks, protesters completed the fifty-four-mile march to a cheering crowd of 25,000 supporters. .No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |
