If Your Back's Not Bent: The Role of the Citizenship Education Program in the Civil Rights Movement

"If Your Back's Not Bent" tells the story of the last surviving member of Dr. Martin Luther King's inner circle. From her impoverished upbringing in North Carolina in the 1930s, joining the movement in the 1950s, to being a part of the entourage in Oslo, Norway, when King accepted the Nobel Peace Prize in 1964, and up-to-now, Ms. Cotton shares her insights as a visionary, peacemaker, and lifelong civil rights activist.
