| Abstract | "Sarah Keys Evans wasn't a person anyone thought would spend a night in a jail cell -- or change the world. But trouble came Sarah's way in 1952, at a North Carolina bus station. There, dressed in her Women's Army Corps uniform, she was arrested for not moving to the back of a bus -- three years before it happened to another Black woman, Rosa Parks. Sarah Keys Evans: The Power of Quiet Courage tells how Sarah stood up for what's right and helped end that kind of unfairness. Others have now honored her by creating a monument that calls her a 'Trailblazer for Justice'"-- Page [4] of cover. |
