This book attempts to convey a sense of "ground-up" history by portraying through photography the actual people who were literally the "boots on the ground" activists. These individuals not only changed history but through their courage and actions changed their own personal histories by registering to vote and then exercising that right. Enjoy the rare photographs of Dr. Martin Luthor King, Jr., Coretta King, Andrew Young, Dr. Ralph Abernathy, James Bevel, Bayard Rustin, etc. Appreciate the pictures of the numerous nameless people who had the courage to march at Selma. Observe the pictures of the courageous citizens during their mini-Selma march in Lunenburg County Virginia and their successful voter registration. Finally, this book is truly about honoring the "ground-up" people who are pictured in this book. Thankfully, some can be named. They are the pictures and faces of the Civil Rights Movement in 1965. They are: John "Boo" Boyd, Al Stokes, Sarah Foster, Dorothy Walker, Ollie Ragsdale, Munford and Meredith Gee, Mr. and Mrs. Henry Jackson, H.D. Washington, Mr. Buddy Irby, Joan Connolly, Cathy Guertin, Al Compaan, Greg Kafoury, Rev. John H. Croslin, Sr, and Herbert Coulton. And lastly to whom this book is dedicated, my hero, Nathaniel Lee Hawthorne.
