She worked together with a group of women and together they purchased the supplies they needed--bread, lettuce, and chickens. And off they went to cook. The women brought food to the mass meetings that followed at the church. They sold sandwiches. They sold dinners in their neighborhoods. As the boycotters walked and walked, Georgia cooked and cooked. Georgia Gilmore was a cook at the National Lunch Company in Montgomery, Alabama. When the bus boycotts broke out in Montgomery after Rosa Parks was arrested, Georgia knew just what to do. She organized a group of women who cooked and baked to fund-raise for gas and cars to help sustain the boycott. Called the Club from Nowhere, Georgia was the only person who knew who baked and bought the food, and she said the money came from "nowhere" to anyone who asked. When Martin Luther King Jr. was arrested for his role in the boycott, Georgia testified on his behalf, and her home became a meeting place for civil rights leaders. This picture book highlights a hidden figure of the civil rights movement who fueled the bus boycotts and demonstrated that one person can make a real change in her community and beyond"-- $c Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references. 521 1 $a 6-9. 521 2 $a K to Grade 3. 600 10 $a Gilmore, Georgia, $d 1920-1990 $v Juvenile literature. 611 27 $a Montgomery Bus Boycott (Alabama : 1955-1956) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01755412 650 0 $a African American women civil rights workers $z Montgomery $z Montgomery $v Juvenile literature. $v Juvenile literature. 650 0 $a Montgomery Bus Boycott, Montgomery, Ala., 1955-1956 $v Juvenile literature. 650 0 $a African Americans $x History $z Montgomery $z Montgomery $x History $y 20th century. 650 7 $a African American women $v Biography. $2 sears 650 7 $a African Americans $x Civil rights. $2 sears 650 7 $a Boycotts $z United States. $2 sears 650 7 $a Civil rights demonstrations $z United States. $2 sears 650 7 $a African American women civil rights workers. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00799481 650 7 $a African Americans $x Civil rights. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00799575 651 7 $a Alabama $z Montgomery. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01202689 650 7 $a HISTORY / Americas (North, Central, South, West Indies) $2 bisacsh 648 7 $a 1900-1999 $2 fast 655 7 $a Biography. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423686 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 655 7 $a Juvenile works. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411637 655 7 $a Biographies. $2 lcgft 700 1 $a Freeman, Laura $c (Illustrator), $e illustrator. 941 $a 17 952 $l DPPE403 $d 20240611014848.0 952 $l GOPG641 $d 20240409032431.0 952 $l SFPH074 $d 20240314015506.0 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231018021238.0 952 $l HNPC845 $d 20230816010449.0 952 $l SIPD314 $d 20230201022226.0 952 $l KSPG296 $d 20211125010625.0 952 $l GEPG771 $d 20210722060807.0 952 $l GPPC641 $d 20200905011812.0 952 $l VXPE964 $d 20200901010634.0 952 $l YEPF572 $d 20200204093453.0 952 $l TYPH572 $d 20200110075436.0 952 $l XXPH787 $d 20190910011801.0 952 $l AAPF906 $d 20190717040255.0 952 $l GDPF771 $d 20190309010803.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20181127015254.0 952 $l SAPG074 $d 20181117010505.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=73AEA0AAEA3611E8BE96D33A97128E48 994 $a Z0 $b LJWInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
