ABOUT THIS BOOK: Bestselling author Reverend Al Sharpton brings to light the stories of the unsung heroes of the Civil Rights movement drawing on his unique perspective in the history of the fight for social justice in America "This is the time. We won't stop until we change the whole system of justice."-Rev. Al Sharpton While the world may know the major names of the Civil Rights movement there are countless lesser-known heroes fighting the good fight to advance equal justice for all heeding the call when no one else was listening often risking their lives and livelihoods in the process. Righteous Troublemakers shines a light on everyday people called to do extraordinary things-like Pauli Murray whose early work informed Thurgood Marshall's legal argument for Brown v. Board of Education Claudette Colvin who refused to give up her seat on a segregated bus months before Rosa Parks did the same and Gwen Carr whose private pain in losing her son Eric Garner stoked her public activism against police brutality. Sharpton also illuminates the lives of more widely known individuals revealing overlooked details historical connections and a perspective informed by years of working on the front line of the social justice movement to provide a behind-the-scenes look at the wheels of justice and the individuals who have helped advance its cause.Publisher.
