But at its core, the March on Washington was not a beautiful dream of future integration; it was a mass outcry for jobs and freedom NOW--not at some undetermined point in the future. It was a revolutionary march with its own controversies and problems, the themes of which still resonate to this day. Without diminishing the words of Dr. King, More Than a Dream looks at the march through a wider lens, using Black newspaper reports as a primary resource, recognizing the overlooked work of socialist organizers and Black women protesters, and repositioning this momentous day as radical in its roots, methods, demands, and results. From Yohuru Williams and Michael G. Long, the acclaimed authors of Call Him Jack, comes a classic-in-the-making that will transform our modern understanding of this legendary event in the fight for racial justice and civil rights. 521 1 $a Ages 10-14 $b Farrar Straus Giroux Books for Young Readers. 521 2 $a Grades 4-6 $b Farrar Straus Giroux Books for Young Readers. 700 1 $a Long, Michael G., $e author. 941 $a 11 952 $l TYPH572 $d 20240524010235.0 952 $l XXPH787 $d 20240403015614.0 952 $l BJPD251 $d 20240223010129.0 952 $l CBPF522 $d 20240206011230.0 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20240104012113.0 952 $l A2PD787 $d 20231229010051.0 952 $l WSPF215 $d 20231220010842.0 952 $l YCPD572 $d 20231206014852.0 952 $l S1PD771 $d 20231102014332.0 952 $l GDPF771 $d 20231021010707.0 952 $l TCPG826 $d 20230902010738.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=0ADA5CA2495611EE81BA178B42ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
