Summary:
This book explores a little-known story of the Civil Rights movement, when black and white citizens in one
Alabama
city worked together nonviolently to end segregation. Mention the Civil Rights era in
Alabama
, and most people recall images of terrible violence. But something different was happening in
Huntsville
. For the citizens of that city, creativity, courage, and cooperation were the keys to working together to integrate their city and schools in peace. In an engaging celebration of this lesser-known chapter in American and African-American history, author Hester Bass and illustrator E. B. Lewis show children how racial discrimination, bullying, and unfairness can be faced successfully with perseverance and ingenuity.
