Claudette Colvin: Twice Toward Justice
Book • 2009
This book tells the story of Claudette Colvin, a 15-year-old who, on March 2, 1955, refused to give up her seat to a white woman on a segregated bus in Montgomery, Alabama.
Despite her courageous act, she was largely overlooked until she became a key plaintiff in the landmark case *Browder v.
Gayle*, which struck down Montgomery's segregation laws.
The book is based on extensive interviews with Colvin and others, weaving her story into the fabric of the Montgomery bus boycott and its impact on American history.
