Summary
One of the neglected stories of the 1960s is the impact of the Vietnam War on the civil rights movement. The war divided African Americans more than any previous issue in American history. The controversy over the Vietnam War was a significant factor in the unravelling of the civil rights coalition in the mid and late 1960s. This book tells the story of the dilemmas facing members of the civil rights movement, who were forced to choose sides in the Vietnam War.
