- Summary
- The author argues that, after the murder of Martin Luther King, Jr., the civil rights movement entered a new phase. These were years when decisive, historic victories were no longer within reach--the movement's achievements were instead hard-won, and their meanings unsettled. From the fight to pass the Fair Housing Act in 1968, to debates over unity and leadership at the National Black Political Conventions, to the campaign for full-employment legislation, to the surprising enactment of the Martin Luther King holiday, to Jesse Jackson's quixotic presidential campaigns, veterans of the movement struggled to rally around common goals. This book documents this struggle, including moments when the movement seemed on the verge of dissolution, and the monumental efforts of its members to persevere
