Summary	"The Civil Rights Movement was an organized effort by Black Americans to claim the fundamental rights that the U.S. government had denied them--even long after slavery had ended. This collection of biographies for kids explores 15 civil rights leaders and the extraordinary things they accomplished in the face of huge challenges. See how these men and women bravely stood up for what's right and laid the foundation for future generations to live more freely and equally."-- Amazon.
