Book excerpt: While Black Power activism on the coasts and in the Midwest has attracted considerable scholarly attention, much less has been written about the movement's impact outside these hot beds. Shirletta J. Kinchen helps redress that imbalance by examining how young Memphis activists embraced Black Power ideology to confront gross disparities in housing, education, and employment as well as police brutality and harassment.
