Bibliography Includes bibliographical references and index.
Summary Carter reveals the complex and often tense relationships between the Johnson administration and activist groups advocating further social change, and he extends the traditional timeline of the civil rights movement beyond the passage of the Voting Rights Act. Examining grassroots movements and organizations and their complicated relationships with the federal government and state authorities between 1965 and 1968, Carter takes readers through the inner workings of local civil rights coalitions as they tried to maintain strength within their organizations while facing both overt and subtle opposition.
