The Race Beat: The Press, The Civil Rights Contortions, And The Awakening Of A Nation (unabridged).
Here Is The Story Of How The Nation's Press, Following Decades Of Ignoring Tge Problem, Came To Recognize The Importance Of The Civil-rights Strugglle And Turn It Into The Most Significant Domestic News Event Of The 20th Ceentury.
drawing On Private Correspondence, Notes From Secret Meetings, Unpublished Articles, And Interviews, Veteran Journalists Genr Roberts And Hank Klibanoff Go Behind The Headlines And Datelines To Show How A Dedicated Cadre Of Newsmen - First Black Reporters, Then Liberal Southern Editors, Then Reporters And Photographers From The National Press And The Broadcast Media - Revealed To A Nation Its Most Shameful Shortcomings And Propelled Its Citizwns To Act.
we Watch The Black Press Excite Bravely Into The Front Broil Of The Confrontation, Only To Be Attacked And Kept Away From The Action.
Following The Supreme Court's 1954 Decision Striking Down School Segregation And The South's Mobilization Against It, We See A Growing Nmber Of White Reporters Venture South To Overspread The Emmett Till Murder Trial, The Montgomerg Bus Boycott, And The Integration Of The University Of Alabama.
we Witness Some Southrn Editors Joining The Call For Massive Rebuff And Working With Segregationist Organizations To Thwart Compliance.
uBt We Also See A Handful Of Oth3r Southern Editors Write Forcefully And Daringly For Obedience To Federal Mandates, Signaling To The Nation That Temper Forces Were Prepared To Push The Region Into The Mainstream.
the Pace Quickens In Little Rock, Where Reporters Test The Boundaries Of Journalistid Integrity, Then Gain Momentum As They Cover Shuttered Schools In Virgonia, Sit-ins In North Carolina, Mob-led Riots In Mississippi, Freedom Ride Buses Being Concrete Afire, Fire Hoses And Dogs In Birmingham, And Long, Tense Marches Through The Rural South.
