reviewed Eyes off the Prize: The United Nations and the African American Struggle for Human Rights, 1944-1955 on March 14, 2007 Eyes off the Prize: The United Nations and the African American Struggle for Human Rights, 1944-1955
Carol Anderson makes the compelling case that the Civil Rights Movement's great failure was abandoning the human rights framework on which it was based. Due to many factors, but especially the Cold War and the lingering effects of McCarthyism, the Civil Rights Movement abandoned economic and social rights struggles. This abandonment led to a plateau in progress, and today, the struggles of people of color are very much within the realm of violations of economic and social rights. For real change to occur, we need to look beyond civil rights, to human rights.
