Supports the Common Core State Standards.
Told through the unique point of view and intimate voice of a one-hundred-year-old African-American female narrator, this inspiring book demonstrates that in gaining their freedom and equal rights, African Americans helped our country achieve its promise of liberty and justice--the true Heart and soul of our nation.
It\'s a Story of discrimination and broken promises, determination, and triumphs.
This is the Story of the men, women, and children who toiled in the hot sun picking cotton for their masters; it\'s about the America ripped in two by Jim Crow laws; it\'s about the brothers and sisters of all colors who rallied against those who would dare bar a child from an education.
The Story of America and African Americans is a Story of hope and inspiration and unwavering courage.
