In this Bank Street College of Education Best Children's Book of the Year, Paula Young Shelton, daughter of Civil Rights activist Andrew Young, brings a child’s unique perspective to an important chapter in America’s history. Paula grew up in the deep south, in a world where whites had and blacks did not. With an activist father and a community of leaders surrounding her, including Uncle Martin (Martin Luther King), Paula watched and listened to the struggles, eventually joining with her family—and thousands of others—in the historic march from Selma to Montgomery. Poignant, moving, and hopeful, this is an intimate look at the birth of the Civil Rights Movement.

"The U.S. civil rights movement rose to prominence in the 1950s, with protests finally compelling civil rights legislation in the mid-1960s. But activists still contended with institutional racism embedded in America's economic, political, and cultural systems. This important, wide-ranging volume tells the story of the early movement and the figures who fought for equality, such as Martin Luther King, Rosa Parks, and Malcolm X. It also includes discussion of the ramifications of the movement and the actions of its leaders today. Historical photographs, primary sources, and powerful quotes from eyewitnesses of events will resonate with readers."
