Select Praise for March on Children: The Story of James Meredith's March Against Fear Every black over 30-years-old should read this book and teach their children all of their history. Anyone who doesn't know their history is doomed to repeat it. James Meredith Ole Miss - 1962 Ms. Rankin's book about James Meredith is right on point. In the 1960's, he was a loner, impassive by the Civil Rights Movement because he strongly believed the U.S. Constitution is all that is needed to guarantee his rights as a citizen. This wonderfully written book helps children to understand who James Meredith really is, and why, from an early age, he began a mission to change Mississippi and America into a better place for all citizens. Stylistically, her vivid storytelling, without a doubt, is a spellbinding experience for any child. I hope Ms. Rankin's book will be used by educators across the country as a viable tool to teach children in their early learning process the truth about James Meredith and why he believes the word citizen is the most important one in the U.S. Constitution.
