Test Ride on the Sunnyland Bus

A Daughter's Civil Rights Journey

Beschreibung

In 1957, Joseph Spagna and five other men waited to board a bus called the Sunnyland. Their plan was: ride the bus together - three blacks and three whites - get arrested and take their case to the US Supreme Court. This book chronicles the story of an American family against the backdrop of one of the civil rights movement's lesser-known stories.
