Synopsis
What was it like growing up in the Deep South when Jim Crow laws were everywhere?
How did it feel to sit down to dinner with grown-ups who planned protests between bites of Mama’s creamy macaroni and cheese?And imagine walking right beside Uncle Martin and Aunt Coretta in that historic
march from Selma to Montgomery—until your legs were so tired that you had to ride on your father’s back.
Paula Young Shelton, a daughter of civil rights leader Andrew Young, takes readers on a vivid trip back to Paula’s childhood in an extraordinary family—the family of the American civil rights movement.
