Description
"In World War II, black Americans fought side by side with white Americans to preserve freedom and democracy. But they came home to a world in which blacks were separate but unequal. The 1954 U.S. Supreme Court decision in Brown v. Board of Education eliminated segregated schools in theory, but in reality Jim Crow still ruled the South. The civil rights movement began in the 1950s, gathered steam with the sit-ins and marches of the 1960s, and led to the Voting Rights Act of 1965. But African Americans continue to protest because inequality and violence against minorities has not stopped." --Back cover.
