Civil Rights Move by Nigel Ritchie
The book traces the actions, experiences and achievements of those involved in the civil rights movement in the USA from the mid-1950s. It explains how the movement challenged segregation and discrimination in the southern states, using boycotts, marches and other forms of non-violent resistence. It ends by looking at its legacy and also reflects on how the fight for equality continues today.
This is clear, comfortable to read and creates an unobtrusive but stimulating relationship between the historical evidence and the account drawn from it-- BfK 20020701 This is a must for the school library. -- The School Librarian 20020701
