The Desegregated Heart: A Virginian's Stand In Time Of Transition

By Sarah Patton Boyle

""The Desegregated Heart: A Virginian's Stand In Time Of Transition"" is a memoir written by Sarah Patton Boyle. The book is set in Virginia during the time of the Civil Rights Movement, and it tells the story of Boyle's personal journey towards racial equality. Boyle, a white woman from a privileged background, became involved in the Civil Rights Movement after witnessing the injustices and discrimination faced by African Americans in her community. She became an outspoken advocate for desegregation, and her activism put her at odds with many of her friends and family members. The book is a powerful reflection on the complexities of race relations in the South during the 1960s. Boyle writes candidly about her own prejudices and the challenges she faced as she worked to overcome them. She also recounts her experiences working with Civil Rights leaders such as Martin Luther King Jr. and James Farmer. ""The Desegregated Heart"" is a compelling and deeply personal account of one woman's journey towards racial equality. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of the Civil Rights Movement and the ongoing struggle for social justice in America.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
