I'm of two minds about this book. At first, I didn't love it. In part because the early chapters assume we know nothing about the Civil Rights movement. I'm all for covering your bases, making sure your audience understands what's going on, but this one might go too far. On the other hand, most books we get about the movement focus on Martin Luther King Jr, Rosa Parks, and school integration. It was interesting to explore this "new" aspect of a familiar piece of history. And the boldness of the young people involved was inspiring.
