Is this where some guy went nuts and killed a woman and children? Or am I mixing up my architects?

Attachment 21104
She was not some hapless, unwitting seamstress who one day got tired on a Jim Crow bus but a fierce, tireless civil rights tactician and organizer many years before her storied arrest and for decades afterward. This biography explodes the myths and illuminates her life and work.

I thought I read this too, but it's also a documentary, so maybe I only saw the doc. Sans you're killing the reading game. I used to read a ton of books. The internet has zapped a lot of my attention span. You've inspired me to get back into reading an actual book. Give my eyes a rest from the laptop screen.

Picked this one up the other day.

The Hardest Deal of All: the Battle Over School Integration In Mississippi, 1870-1980 by Charles C. Bolton.

I'm on the second page of the Introduction and already I'm engrossed.
