The Story of Civil Liberty in the United States
The Story of Civil Liberty in the United Statesby Leon Whipple
History
of civil rights in nineteenth and early-twentieth century America.
There are stories of heroic people who stood up for their own rights and
those of others, but also terrible betrayals of freedom of spech and
religion and association, as well as racism and intolerance. This book
serves as a warning that the promise of liberty is meaningful only if
liberty is ensured for all people, including those we don’t agree with
or don’t understand.
