Inhaltsangabe

Chappell contends that black southerners defeated segregation in part because of their ability not only to enlist the help of white liberals and moderates, but also to manipulate hard-line segregationists into behavior that was often politically self-destructive. From case studies of Montgomery, Tallahassee, Little Rock, and Albany (Georgia), Chappell extends his analysis to the national government to show how white southerners became the chief instrument of federal intervention for civil rights.
