1957 (Exploring Civil Rights: The Movement)

"The year 1957 was full of new beginnings and hope for a growing movement. In January, prominent civil rights leaders attended a historic meeting in Georgia with Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., at the helm ... Progress toward equality for Black Americans was slow, but commitment to the movement continued to deepen during the year as the prospect of change seemed possible"--Provided by publisher.
