The Children's March
by Antoinette Winstead
Jan. 05 (2023)
Set in May 1963, the day before Birmingham, Alabama’s historic black student walkout, The Children’s March tells the story of eight brave high school students as they prepare to march, each grappling with their decision to participate or not, each acutely aware of the consequences for themselves, their families, and community, all having to weigh fear against hope.
