Overview

The award-winning correspondent for the MacNeil/Lehrer NewsHour gives a moment-by-moment account of her walk into history when, as a 19-year-old, she challenged Southern law—and Southern violence—to become the first black woman to attend the University of Georgia. A powerful act of witness to the brutal realities of segregation.
