Book Description:
|
In his gripping memoir, civil rights activist Bob Zellner tells how one white Alabamian joined ranks with the black students who were sitting-in, marching, fighting, and sometimes dying to challenge the Southern "way of life" he had been raised on but rejected. Reviled by some but admired and revered by many, Zellner describes how he began protesting on behalf of social change and equal rights, and how decades later he still continues in the struggle.
