With text written by Lorraine Hansberry, this book highlights the 'struggle for the humanization of our country', documenting all aspects of the 'social revolution', from the 'dauntless good humor of a twelve-year-old girl in a Georgia jail' to the 'rage and hatred of a Ku Klux Klansman&apos. 'The Movement' was prepared with assistance from the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee, or the SNCC.Written by Lorraine Hansberry (1930-1965), a playwright and writer who was the first African-American woman to have a play performed on Broadway, titled 'Raisin in the Sun&apos. Hansberry also worked at the Pan-Africanist newspaper 'Freedom', helping to document the African struggle for liberation. With photographs by Danny Lyon, an American photographer and filmmaker who was the main photographer for the SNCC, and was present for almost all of the major historical events during the Civil Rights Movement. Additional photographs by Bob Adelman, Don Charles, Frank Dandridge, Roy De Carava, William DuBois, and many more.Collated, complete.
