J. Todd Moye | Akateeminen Kirjakauppa

Using extensive oral history interviews and archival research, Moye situates the struggle for democracy in Sunflower County, Mississippi within the context of national developments in the civil rights movement. Moye argues that the civil rights movement must be undertstood as the accumulation of thousands of local movements, each with specific goals and strategies. This is the story of the most important social movement in southern history from the grass roots up.
