This is a study of school desegregation in Virginia. It traces the evolution of the Richmond public schools from segregation to desegregation to resegregation in the decades following the Brown decision. It analyses the separate but equal system and its impact on life in the city.

Drawing on archival materials, secondary sources, and eyewitness accounts of the brave men and women who marched, this gripping account offers a brief and nuanced narrative of this critical phase of the black freedom struggle.
