Freedom Ride - Paperback
$17.01
by James Peck (Author), James Baldwin (Foreword by)
2016 Reprint of 1962 Edition. Full facsimile of the original edition, not reproduced with Optical Recognition Software. Freedom Riders were civil rights activists who rode interstate buses into the segregated southern United States in 1961 and following years to challenge the non-enforcement of the United States Supreme Court decisions Morgan v. Virginia (1946) and Boynton v. Virginia (1960), which ruled that segregated public buses were unconstitutional. This is a vivid, detailed account of how these freedom riders, accidently or spontaneously, found the symbols that speak to everybody and what they experienced on their fateful bus expedition to the American South.
