Black & White: The Confrontation between Reverend Fred L. Shuttlesworth and Eugene “Bull” Connor

This offers a thorough look at the Civil Rights movement through the opposing eyes of Reverend Fred Shuttlesworth and the Commissioner of Public Safety “Bull” Connor.  These giants of the 1950 and 60’s came head-to-head in the multiple conflicts such as the Bethel Baptist Church bombing, the Woolworth department-store lunch counter sit-in, attacks by the Ku Klux Klan, and other segregation issues.  The picture-book size, laden with photographs is kid-friendly for that student ready to find quick research.
