On a hot June afternoon an African-American man named James Meredith set out to walk through his home state, intending to fight racism and fear with his feet. A seemingly simple plan, but one teeming with risk. Just one day later Meredith was shot and wounded in a roadside ambush. Within twenty-four hours, Martin Luther King, Jr., Stokely Carmichael, and other civil rights leaders had taken up Meredith's cause, determined to overcome this violent act and complete Meredith's walk. The stakes were high--there was no time for advance planning and their route cut through dangerous territory. No one knew if they would succeed. By many measures the March Against Fear became one of the greatest protests of the civil rights era. But it was also one of the last, and the campaign has been largely forgotten. Critically acclaimed author Ann Bausum brings this crucial turning point of civil rights history back to life, escorting you along the dusty Mississippi roads where heroic marchers endured violence, rage, and fear as they walked more than 200 miles in the name of equality and justice. 600 10 $a Meredith, James, $d 1933- 650 0 $a Civil rights demonstrations $z Mississippi $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Racism $z Mississippi $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a African American civil rights workers $z Mississippi $v Biography. 650 0 $a African American college students $z Mississippi $v Biography. 650 0 $a Black power $z Mississippi $x History $y 20th century. 650 7 $a African American civil rights workers. 650 7 $a Civil rights demonstrations. 650 7 $a Race relations. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01086509 650 7 $a Racism. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01086616 650 4 $a Compact discs. 650 4 $a Non fiction $x Compact discs. 700 1 $a Chilton, Karen. 941 $a 2 945 $a cdab 952 $l CBPF522 $d 20180801010753.0 952 $l KSPG296 $d 20180125013023.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=DE9045A4019D11E89C78220097128E48 994 $a C0 $b BUPInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
