In this heartbreaking but ultimately triumphant story of
courage and will, journalist Robert Whitaker carefully
documents–and exposes–one of the worst racial massacres in
American history. Whitaker’s important book commemorates a legal
struggle, “Moore v. Dempsey, ” that paved the way for the civil
rights era, and tells too of a man, Scipio Africanus Jones, whose
name surely deserves to be known by all Americans.
”Whitaker has … placed the massacre and the Supreme Court
decision in their full legal and historical context. At the same
time, he has revived the story of a great African-American lawyer,
Scipio Africanus Jones.” –“New York Times Book Review”
