Publisher Description:

the lead-up to the anti-discrimination march of Dr. Martin Luther King and his followers, the confrontatioin with Bull Connor and his minions, and the aftermath that generated King's famous I HAVE A DREAM speach.
Told through the eyes of a young black boy who had never witnessed discrimination, the story - while fiction based on historical fact - lays bare the viciousness of bigotry and the evil that man can do to man, while still holding hope that trust and belief in God may change the dark vitriol and fear that some hold in their heart against others of dufferent color to peace and goodwill toward their fellow man without regard to the color of one's skin.
