Samenvatting
"I was surprised at how much there is for myself and other movement people to learn about the Mississippi freedom struggle from Charles Payne's book."--Bob Moses, SNIC Field Secretary, Mississippi, 1961-1965

"A compelling story of the black freedom struggle in the Mississippi Delta. Charles Payne has written the definitive study of the civil rights movement in the Delta.

His study brings needed attention to the courageous struggles of little known grassroots leaders in the Mississippi strongholds of white supremacy."--Clayborne Carson, Editor, "The Papers of Martin Luther King, Jr.
