Summary
"This new edition of T. V. Reed's acclaimed classic offers accounts of ten key progressive movements in postwar America, from the African American struggle for civil rights beginning in the 1950s to Occupy Wall Street and Black Lives Matter in the twenty-first century. Reed focuses on the artistic activities of these movements to frame progressive social change and its cultural legacies."--, Provided by publisher
