A first-rate biography of the greatly underappreciated pacifist and Civil Rights leader. Revealing, insightful, and compelling.

Sullywriter | 1 muu arvostelu | May 22, 2015 | Bayard Rustin was one of Dr. Martin Luther King's most trusted and valued advisors, but he was marginalized by others in the movement, as he was a Communist and an openly gay man. He played a vital role in several key points of the movement, and this excellent book brings his previously hidden story to life.
