CLAUDETTE COLVIN: TWICE TOWARD JUSTICE
By Philip Hoose
Read by Channie Waites
Published by Brilliance Audio

Based on extensive interviews with Claudette Colvin and many others, Phillip Hoose presents the first in-depth account of a major, yet little-known, civil rights figure whose story provides a fresh perspective on the Montgomery bus protest of 1955–56.

“Channie Waites superbly narrates a text that offers both cogent explanations of history, including especially informative sidebars, and first-person accounts of those who witnessed the battle for civil rights firsthand, dramatized by Waites in a vivid array of voices.”

WHILE THE WORLD WATCHED
By Carolyn Maull McKinstry,
with Denise George
Read by Felicia Bullock
Published by Oasis Audio

Fifteen-year-old Carolyn Maull McKinstry was just a few feet away when the Klan-planted bomb that killed four of her friends exploded in the Sixteenth Street Baptist Church in Birmingham, Alabama. A unique and moving exploration of how racial relations have evolved over the past five decades.

“Felicia Bullock narrates with a gentle, subtle voice that complements the text and captures the emotions involved in the author’s account.”
