Memories of the Southern Civil Rights Movement by Danny Lyon PDF Summary

Book Description: In Memories of the Southern Civil Rights Movement, Lyon tells the compelling story of how a handful of dedicated young people, both black and white, forged one of the most successful grassroots organizations in American History. The book depicts some of the most violent and dramatic moments of civil rights history including Black Monday in Danville, Virginia; the aftermath of the bombing of the Sixteenth Street Baptist Church in Birmingham; the March on Washington in 1964 and the Mississippi Freedom Summer of 1962. In addition to including his own photos, taken as the first staff photographer for the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC), the book includes a selection of historic SNCC documents such as press releases, telephone logs, letters and minutes of meetings. This combination of pictures, eyewitness reports, and text takes the reader inside the civil rights movement, creating both a work of art and an authentic work of history.
