It brought together leaders like Martin Luther King Jr. and Stokely Carmichael, who formed an unlikely alliance that resulted in the Black Power movement, which ushered in a new era in the fight for equality. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e The retelling of Meredith's story opens on the day of his assassination attempt and goes back in time to recount the moments leading up to that event and its aftermath. Readers learn about the powerful figures and emerging leaders who joined the over 200-mile walk that became known as the \"March Against Fear.\" \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Thoughtfully presented by award-winning author Ann Bausum, this book helps readers understand the complex issues of fear, injustice, and the challenges of change. It is a history lesson that's as important and relevant today as it was 50 years ago.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ann Bausum\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1426326653\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781426326653\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e National Geographic Kids\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/03\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 144\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.80lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 6.20w x 0.70d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAccelerated Reader:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReading Level:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.1\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePoint Value:\u003c\/b\u003e 6\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eInterest Level:\u003c\/b\u003e Middle Grade\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eQuiz #\/Name: \u003c\/b\u003e184779 \/ March Against Fear: The Last Great Walk of the Civil Rights Movement and the Emergence of Black Powe\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/07\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/15\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eSchool Library Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/01\/2016 pg. 138\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eVoice of Youth Advocates\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/01\/2016 - Recommended - Hard To Beat\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/01\/2016 pg. 39","brand":"Ann Bausum","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43980342919423,"sku":"9781426326653","price":18.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_94a57add-e903-4ff5-82a0-970fa492a880.jpg?v=1683249384","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-march-against-fear-ann-bausum-9781426326653","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
