Ida B. Wells: Mother of the Civil Rights Movement
By Judith Bloom Fradin / Houghton-mifflin
Born a slave in 1862, Ida B. Wells went on to become one of our nation's earliest civil rights leaders. She helped found the National Associaton for Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) and fought for women's voting rights. In 1892, Ida began a crusade that would prove to be her main life's work. Through her writing and her speaking engagements, she carried out a national campaign against the intolerable practice of lynching--the hanging, burning or shooting of a person without a trial. Her outspokenness put her in grave danger time and time again, but Ida would not be silenced. By the time of her death in 1931, lynching in the United States had disappeared almost entirely, due largely to her efforts. Here Dennis and Judith Fradin thoughtfully recount the achievements of Ida B. Wells, the spiritual mother of the civil rights movement, bringing this strong and intelligent woman vividly to life. Striking archival photographs and prints appear throughout this well researched and accessible book. Recommended for ages 10 to 14.

Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass
By Frederick Douglass / Random House, Inc
This eloquent and dramatic autobiography of the early life of an American slave was first published in 1845, when its author was about twenty-eight years old and had just achieved his freedom. Although it was not uncommon during the era of American slavery for articulate Blacks who escaped to have their experiences published, Narrative of the Life of Fredrick Douglass is unique among these "slave narratives" because of Douglass's eloquent power of expression. The publication of the book also marked the beginning of a career in which the militant and uncompromising Douglass emerged as the first great leader of Afro-Americans in the United States. The powers that enabled him to reach this position are abundantly clear in his Narrative, which, incidentally, was an invaluable source for Harriet Beecher Stowe while she was writing Uncle Tom's Cabin.

Harriet Tubman: The Road to Freedom
By Catherine Clinton / Hachette Book Group, Usa
Celebrating for her courageous exploits as a conductor on the Underground Railroad, Harriet Tubman has entered history as one of 19th century America's most enduring and important figures. But just who was this remarkable woman? To John Brown, leader of the Harpers Ferry uprising, she was General Tubman. For the many slaves she led north to freedom, she was their lifesaver. To the slaveholders who sought her capture, she was a thief and a trickster. Now in a biography widely praised for its impeccable research and its compelling narrative, Tubman is revealed as a singular and complex character, a woman who defined all categorization.
