Summary:  "In the summer of 2013, Moral Mondays gained national attention as tens of thousands of citizens protested the extreme makeover of North Carolina's state government and over a thousand people were arrested in the largest mass civil disobedience movement since the lunch counter sit-ins of 1960. Every Monday for 13 weeks, Rev. Dr. William J. Barber led a revival meeting on the state house lawn that brought together educators and the unemployed, civil rights and labor activists, young and old, documented and undocumented, gay and straight, black, white and brown. Seven years of coalition building and organizing work led up to the Moral Mondays success, holding forth a vision for America that would sustain the movement far beyond a mass mobilization in one state. Rev. Barber's memoir of the Forward Together Moral Movement. Drawing on decades of experience in the Southern freedom struggle, Rev. Barber explains how Moral Mondays were not simply a reaction to corporately sponsored extremism that aims to re-make America through state legislatures. Moral Mondays were, instead, a tactical escalation to draw attention to the anti-democratic forces bent on serving special interests to the detriment of the common good"--Provided by publisher.
