(Cavendish Square Publishing Jan. 15, 2018)
"At the outset of the Freedom Rides, thirteen men and women, both black and white, came together to ride buses through the South and challenge segregation in bus terminals. They faced an overwhelming, violent response. Yet at the peak of the movement, more than four hundred people risked physical harm to participate. This book provides a comprehensive look at the bravery of those involved, describes the racism protestors fought, and outlines how peaceful tactics ultimately led to desegregation."--Amazon.com.
