More about the book

The book delves into the systemic racial segregation established by white southerners post-Civil War, which aimed to maintain white supremacy and control over black southerners. It highlights the detrimental effects of this oppressive system on both races across various aspects of life. Through a collection of speeches, it explores the conditions that necessitated the Civil Rights Movement, featuring voices from both advocates for civil rights and defenders of segregation, including the impactful contributions of lesser-known figures like Fannie Lou Hamer and James M. Lawson Jr.
