<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>2016 Reprint of 1962 Edition. Full facsimile of the original edition, not reproduced with Optical Recognition Software. <strong>Freedom Riders</strong> were civil rights activists who rode interstate buses into the segregated southern United States in 1961 and following years to challenge the non-enforcement of the United States Supreme Court decisions Morgan v. Virginia (1946) and Boynton v. Virginia (1960), which ruled that segregated public buses were unconstitutional. This is a vivid, detailed account of how these freedom riders, accidently or spontaneously, found the symbols that speak to everybody and what they experienced on their fateful bus expedition to the American South.</p>
