In 1965, Chuck Fager was a rookie civil rights worker, fresh out of college, who was sent to Selma, Alabama to work for Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s direct action campaign to end the racist exclusion of African-Americans from voting, there and across the South. This is Chuck Fager's vivid personal account of the movement: how he got there, his experiences in and out of jail, what he learned, how Selma shaped his life and launched him on a spiritual journey and a writer's career. This book is a revealing first-person counterpart to his earlier, highly-praised historical account, "Selma 1965: The March That Changed the South."
