Автор: Taylor Susan Название: Exploring Civil Rights: The Movement: 1957 ISBN: 1338769758 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781338769753 Издательство: Scholastic Рейтинг: Цена: 9400.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: Key events of the Civil Rights Movement will be brought to life in this exciting and informative new series.1957 was a year of new beginnings and hope for a growing movement. In January, prominent civil rights leaders attended a historic meeting in Georgia with Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. at the helm. In September, as protests were heating up around the nation, a group of Black students, known as the Little Rock Nine, integrated Central High School in Little Rock, Arkansas. At the same time, activists' push for legislation resulted in the passage of the Civil Rights Act of 1957. Progress toward equality for Blacks was slow, but people's commitment to the movement continued to deepen by the year as the prospect of change seemed possible.The years from 1955 to 1965 are at the heart of the civil rights movement--from the Montgomery bus boycott to the Voting Rights Act. The contributions of key activists, including Rosa Parks, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., John Lewis, Barbara Nash, and Malcolm X, are part of the narrative. Demonstrations of passive resistance and legal challenges were often met with bloodshed and violence against Black Americans fighting to end segregation and discrimination. Yet the courage of those yearning for equal opportunities under the law ultimately produced legislation affirming that every American should have the same constitutional rights, regardless of color, race, or gender. Key features: - Each book addresses major moments in civil rights history, organized chronologically, ties into the school curriculum - Sidebars, at least one per chapter (mix of cultural references and explanations of more complex terms) - Back matter: timeline, glossary, reference materials, mini-bio of a modern civil rights activist, and more- Brand new series design, historical photos throughout - Opportunities for series expansion (pre & post-civil rights)

Описание: World War II completely disrupted life in the United States and throughout the world, and it was an empowering turning point in U.S. women's history. Some women joined the armed forces as nurses and pilots. Some went to work outside the home in factories producing munitions, and building ships and airplanes. Some even became spies But despite all these accomplishments, women were rarely given the recognition they deserved or the same benefits as their male counterparts. This book tells their story. Women are sometimes called the silent protagonists of history. But since before the founding of our nation until now, women have organized, marched, and inspired. They forced change and created opportunity. With engaging text, fun facts, photography, infographics, and art, this new set of books examines how individual women of differing races and socioeconomic status took a stand, and how groups of women lived and fought throughout the history of this country. It looks at how they celebrated victories that included the right to vote, the right to serve their country, and the right to equal employment. The aim of this much-needed set of five books is to bring herstory to young readers
