A More Beautiful and Terrible History: The Uses and Misuses of Civil Rights History by Jeanne Theoharis

3.0

good and interesting although not quite what I was expecting/wanting! it was more about the elements that are left out of traditional civil rights histories, whereas I had thought it was going to focus more on how civil rights history has been shaped and retold to fit specific agenda and what political work that's doing. still a good book though!
