Frustrated by the laws that kept African-Americans separate but very much unequal to whites, she had questions. Why couldnt she drink from a whites only fountain? Why couldnt she feel safe beyond home-or even within the walls of church? Adults all told her: Hold your tongue. Be patient. Know your place. But Beals had the heart of a fighter-and the knowledge that her true place was a free one.With emotive photos, this memoir paints a vivid picture of Bealss powerful early journey on the road to becoming a champion for equal rights, an acclaimed journalist, a best-selling author, and the recipient of this countrys highest recognition, the Congressional Gold Medal. Includes a Q\u0026amp;A with Melba and bonus audio clip.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51972139811104,"sku":"NEW132860392X","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/818JJy5qNYL.jpg?v=1783793961","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/march-forward-girl-from-young-warrior-to-little-rock-nine-132860392x","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
