Annotation |
The compiler of this oral history (originator of Foxfire magazine) groups contributors into categories defined by social action experience and date. But there the similarity ends. Individual narrators, such as Rosa Parks and Pete Seeger, recall personal reactions to injustice and the critical points at which each took an active stance.
