Barbara Johns Teenaged Civil Rights Activist

Veronica Alease Davis (Author)

Coloring History: Barbara Johns Teenaged Civil Rights Activist tells the story of the courageous sixteen-year-old student whose 1951 strike at Robert Russa Moton High School helped spark the fight for educational equality and became part of Brown v. Board of Education. Through vivid illustrations and accessible storytelling, the book introduces young readers, educators, and families to one of the most important student-led protests in American history.

 

Veronica A. Davis is also a presenter at the 111th Annual ASALH Conference, where she will discuss the 75th anniversary of the Barbara Johns Moton School Strike and the commemoration of student activism in public history and education.
