Right to Ride: Streetcar Boycotts and African American Citizenship in the Era of Plessy V. Ferguson
3.5 stars - This text does incredibly important work in correcting the narrative of turn-of-20th-century Black life as accommodationist by highlighting the radical tradition of boycott originating directly in the aftermath of emancipation and Reconstruction, effectively tethering the mass movements of the mid-20th century to the legacies and traditions of enslaved and freedpeople's demands for personhood. That being said, the detail of the text and the different casts of characters in each location made it somewhat difficult to keep track of and could have been more immersive.
