Annotation |
An award-winning author provides an unflinching portrayal of life in the segregated South and the bravery of young people who fought that system. From the violent Woolworth's lunch-counter sit-ins in Jackson to the school walkouts of McComb, the young people worked to reveal the vulnerability of black bodies and the ugly nature of the world they lived in. For junior and senior high readers. 2021.
