Born Colored Life before Bloody Sunday

Born Colored is about generations of a family living in the deep South prior to the start of the Civil Rights Movement. Bloody Sunday--March 7, 1965--was the day that 200 troopers beat 500 peaceful marchers with billy clubs, whips and tear gas as they attempted to walk from Selma to Montgomery. Mitchell's book captures this "boiling over" which she sees as the result of years and years of emotional and physical injuries. By simply telling the truth, she captures the tyranny upon which the Movement was built.Mitchell, Erin Goseer is the author of 'Born Colored Life before Bloody Sunday', published 2006 under ISBN 9780976123521 and ISBN 0976123525.
