Have No Fear: The Charles Evers Story de Charles Evers

Have No Fear: The Charles Evers Story

Autor Charles Evers, Andrew Szanton, Evers
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 31 mar 1998
A moving and dramatic coming-of-age memoir of Charles Evers, one of the most colorful civil rights pioneers and brother of Medgar Evers, slain hero of the Movement. Evers led a biracial coalition which unseated an all-white Mississippi delegation at the 1968 Democratic Convention and was the first African American to run for governor of Mississippi and to be elected mayor in that state since reconstruction. His story is riveting and, working with a gifted collaborator, he has created a strong sense of time and place. Reveals new information about the Kennedys, especially Bobby who was a very close friend, and offers an up close perspective on Martin Luther King, Jr. and other civil rights leaders.

Textul de pe ultima copertă

""Have No Fear reminds us what it meant to live under a system where segregation was important enough to kill for and where being treated with dignity and respect was a whites-only entitlement."" --The New York Times Book Review

""A gutsy, American patriot and treasure . . . an important slice of American history.""--Dan Rather

""Charles Evers has given us one of the most extraordinary memoirs about race in America that I know. This holy sinner of the civil rights era, who kept company with mobsters, bootleggers, call girls, Kings, Kennedys, and Rockefellers has produced, with Andrew Szanton, a salient one-man's history of Mississippi and the United States before and after Brown v. Board of Education. The fascinating interplay of racial nihilism and political sagacity is reminiscent of the early Malcolm X and the mature Frederick Douglass."" --David Levering Lewis

""Truly spellbinding . . . relives the fear, desperation, and confrontation that marked the civil rights struggle."" --The seattle times
