Praise For Faces of Freedom Summer

" Randall's stunning photographs bring Freedom Summer alive to a new generation of Americans. Tusa's Introduction sheds new light on the Civil Rights movement in Hattiesburg, Mississippi. Together they have produced a work as inspirational as it is instructive." —John Dittmer
