Civil Rights Journey: The Story of a White Southerner Coming of Age During the Civil Rights Revolution by Joseph Howells
Don't miss this exciting opportunity to hear author Joe Howell discuss his autobiographical work in which he recalls his experiences traveling the south as an active member of the Civil Rights movement. The book weaves Howell's own memories with entries from diaries he kept while aiding the struggle for equality.
The following is an excerpt from the book's AuthorHouse publisher description...
Civil Rights Journey recounts the coming of age of a young man shaped early by the crucibles of polio and segregation (both by decree and by custom) and later by that of the civil rights movement. Joe Howell's story depicts the effects of human vulnerability and of human cruelty. The lingering effects of polio made him at times the object of bullying and derision, perhaps thus increasing his sensitivity to such cruelties manifested in the system of segregation. The reader shares the hopes, doubts, and at times despair that form Joe as he tries to wrest meaning from his experiences and determine what his path in life should be. Civil Rights Journey offers the reader a multilayered account of a young man born in the pre-civil rights South, sheltered by a code of customs that privileged the white middle class at the expense of blacks and poor whites, and of his formation and moral development shaped by his civil rights journey. (From the foreword by Janet Hampton)Joseph Howell has written a remarkable memoir.
Tickets for this powerful evening are only $50 and will sell out quickly. All proceeds support the Humanities Council of Washington, DC, a private 501(c)3 non-profit which provides support for humanities programs and projects throughout the District of Columbia.
