FREEDOMSUMMER
ByDougMcAdam

Paperback$19.99

In June 1964, over 1000 volunteers most of them
white, northern college students arrived in
Mississippi to register black voters and staff "freedom
schools" as part of the Freedom Summer campaign
organized by the Student Non-Violent Coordinating
Committee. Brimming with the reminiscences of the
Freedom Summer veterans, the book captures the
varied motives that compelled them to make the
journey south, the terror that came with the
explosions of violence, the camaraderie and conflicts
they experienced among themselves, and their
assorted feelings about the lessons they learned.
