Maggiori informazioni sul libro

The book chronicles the grassroots civil rights movement in Fayette County, Tennessee, highlighting the resilience of a rural Black community facing severe oppression. Starting in 1959, residents faced violent backlash while attempting to register to vote, leading to evictions and the creation of a "tent city." Through extensive interviews, the author captures personal narratives that reveal the motivations behind their fight against systemic injustice. The reprint includes documentary photographs and a new afterword reflecting on the ongoing relevance of these struggles.
