Turning 15 on the Road to Freedom: My Story of the 1965 Selma Voting Rights March by Lynda Blackmon Lowery

5.0

This is a beautifully told story of how Lynda Blackmon Lowery participated in several marches for the right to vote in Selma. She describes how the children’s marches were organized, what happened when she went to jail, and even a moment when she was severely beaten. Throughout there are illustrations and photos with captions.

Good companion to the Teaching Tolerance “Children’s March” documentary.
