Why are we still facing racial issues today? How does the legacy of slavery continue to shape our society? Beat the Drum for Justice delves deep into America's troubled racial history, tracing the fictional life of Gabriel Adams from the 1850s to the early 1900s. Witness his journey alongside key figures like John Brown, Abraham Lincoln, and Frederick Douglass and pivotal events such as the Underground Railroad, the Civil War, Reconstruction, and post-Reconstruction. Christopher C. Cross paints a portrait of the deep-seated racial prejudice and national shame that stem from slavery, the setbacks of Reconstruction, and the Supreme Court's failure to protect civil rights guaranteed by the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments, leading to the era of Jim Crow and segregation. Through this compelling narrative, gain a deeper understanding of the historical roots that continue to shape racial issues in the 21st century. Discover how you can be part of the solution and help forge a more just future.
