When the Children Marched by Robert H Mayer
Referred to as the most segregated city in America, Birmingham, Alabama, became a hotbed for civil rights activity in the early 1960s. Great African-American leaders, including Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and the Reverend Fred Shuttlesworth, helped lead the civil rights movement in the city. In Birmingham, African-American youth marched, sang, and spoke out against segregation. Although they faced police dogs and fire hoses, they offered non-violent resistance and did not back down. This book explores the civil rights leaders who organized the movement and the brave children and teens at the heart of the fight.| SKU | Unavailable |
