Pressestimmen

"Pertinent, refreshing, and a true pleasure to read. It is wonderful to see such a comprehensive guide to civil rights education for young people. I am gratified to know that such a meaningful and intensive way to study these important issues is available to families." --Kweisi Mfume, president, NAACP "This is a much-needed work that should be in every school and public library, as well as in the home. It is imperative that our youth of today know the history of those who made civil rights their life work and, more importantly, those whose lives were sacrificed so all of mankind could someday enjoy 'life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness ...' for which this country stands." --Myrlie Evers-Williams, Chairman Emeritus, NAACP
