The Civil Rights Movement - Struggle and Resistance (Paperback, 4th edition)

An established introductory textbook that provides students with a compelling overview of the growth of the mass movement from its origins after the Second World War to the destruction of segregated society, before charting the movement's path through the twentieth century up to the present day.

New to this Edition: - Revised and updated throughout in light of the latest research - Includes in-depth analysis of Barack Obama's presidency - Provides further exploration of cultural and gender history - Examines contemporary issues, such as the Black Lives Matter movement and the 2016 US election
