Streetcar to Justice: How Elizabeth Jennings Won the Right to Ride in New York by Amy Hill Hearth

4.0

100 years before Rosa Parks refused to give up her seat on a bus, Elizabeth Jennings basically did the same thing on a streetcar in New York City. Yet few people have heard about her story and the court case that won black people the right to ride integrated street cars. An important piece of history for sure, well told and appears to be thoroughly researched. Lots of archival newspapers clippings and interesting tidbits about how the author found out about the story and followed through about various things.
