Description
Including over forty pages of poetry by students in the Freedom Schools of 1964 and an additional dozen biographies, this new edition adds the lively voices of local participants, mostly teenagers, to those of the volunteers from the North. Former 1964 Summer Project Volunteers Ellen Lake and Hardy Frye will join Martinez.
