The Civil Rights Movement (Problems in American Civilization)

About this book

This volume consists of fifteen essays that address a broad range of issues connected with the African American civil rights movement. While the text includes readings related to the late 19th and early 20th centuries the modern movement occupies most of the books focus. A chronology aids student understanding of sequence and causality. Introductions equip students with the historical background they need to fully understand and appreciate each essay.
