Book excerpt: In 1966, a black student and civil rights worker was murdered in an alley by a white man. The man indicted was unsurprisingly acquitted by an all-white jury. That murder marked the end of nonviolence in the black struggle. The author interviewed Sammy's family, friends, and fellow SNCC workers. They not only look back to Sammy and Tuskegee, Alabama, but look forward to where the Movement has gone since and is headed now" --book jacket.
