In graduate school, Rachel Martin was sent to a small town in the foothills of the Appalachians, where locals wanted to build a museum to commemorate the events of September 1956, when Clinton High School became the first school in the former Confederacy to attempt court mandated desegregation.

If I could give 10 stars for this remarkably critical and well-written book, I would! First, tremendous gratitude, respect, and admiration to and for Rachel Louise Martin for passionately and aggressively unearthing and delivering this "must know" American history. So much critical history that can move us forward as united people is being buried...intentionally. Rachel is literally a hero! Secondly, the book is extraordinarily well-written; you can feel the emotions of the players on all sides, not to mention the myriad of deep emotions that surface given the troubling circumstances that unfold. Third, the story of the Clinton 12, and their relatives and supporters is a testament to what we can achieve...what we must continue to fight achieve among ourselves as Americans. Finally, this true story is also, in my view, emblematic of a process for must-achieve humanitarian change that worked then, and I believe continues to evolve and work to this day.
