This picture book is a celebration of the 50th anniversary of the momentous Woolworths lunch counter sit-in, when four college students staged a peaceful protest that became a defining moment in the struggle for racial equality and the growing civil rights movement.
Andrea Davis Pinkney uses poetic, powerful prose to tell the story of these four young men, who followed Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.s words of peaceful protest and dared to sit at the whites only Woolworths lunch counter.
