Description
Academic study of Tinner Hill and its history of Civil Rights activism. The research analyzes the same cases of slow violence, exclusionary practices, and structural racism that pushed Tinner Hill and Black Falls Church to organize. Buczkowska et al. provide important research on the history of Tinner Hill and their study is essential reading to understanding the civil rights history of the community, the actors who drove this work, and the location itself.
