FIFTY YEARS: REMEMBERING MEDGAR EVERS

NOTE BY HUNTER BEAR  (MAY 28 2013)

My extensive retrospective piece, FIFTY YEARS:  REMEMBERING MEDGAR EVERS, is now on the Against the Current website:  http://www.solidarity-us.org/site/node/3876  (Looks very good!)

Against the Current is a very well established Left social justice journal, commendably independent in spirit and action, with a significant circulation.  This is one of a number of civil rights and civil liberties pieces of mine that it has published over the last generation. For a quite full, first hand, and very detailed discussion of the rise and development of the massive Jackson Movement of 1962-63, including its external life and its internal dynamics, see the expanded and updated edition of my book, Jackson Mississippi: An American Chronicle of Struggle and Schism, 272 pp., recently issued by the University of Nebraska Press.   http://hunterbear.org/jackson.htmhttp://hunterbear.org/jackson.htm

For a sampling of the Jackson Movement saga, a few pages -- including some Movement documents:

Feel very free to forward this to anyone you wish.  In fact, I'd much appreciate your doing so.
