As the youngest marcher in the 1965 voting rights march from Selma to Montgomery, Albama, Lynda Blackmon Lowery proved that young adults can be heroes. Jailed nine times before her 15th birthday, Lowery fought alongside Martin Luther King, Jr., for the rights of African Americans. In this memoir, she shows today's young listeners what it means to fight nonviolently (even when the police are using violence, as in the Bloody Sunday protest) and how it felt to be part of changing American history.

Inspiring Story if Faith and Determination

I had to purchase this book as I was blessed to have the opportunity to see a live production of the play. The play was. So wonderfully presented and is a must see. I highly recommend this book as a part of the reading requirement for students. This part of history should be shared with our youth so that they may understand how the civil rights legislation and right to vote was pushed through with the sacrifices of children.
