Beautiful!!!

I have read this book over a decade ago, and saw the movie on Tv, and I enjoyed both very well. These children were fearless in the face of danger, and to me,that is awesome.

2 little girls in the Selma civil rights movement

A moving as-told-to account of the experiences of 2 brave little girls in the days of the Selma civil rights movement. As adult women, they recall their involvement as children in the stirring church meetings and the marches, their relationship with Martin Luther King Jr., and themurders of 2 white Northern clergyman. Stirring, inspirational, deeply moving.
