Based on oral histories with African American activists and community leaders, this book explores the civil rights movement in several Mississippi communities in the context of the region's history of white supremacy, racial oppression, and African American cultural vitality.

Based on oral histories with African American activists and community leaders, this work reveals the impact of that oppression.
