The Miscarriage of Racial Justice: A Civil Rights Presidential Timeline (Unabridged‪)‬

An unforgiving and profound timeline of the history of systemic racial injustice against Black Americans from Eisenhower in 1953 to Trump in the first half of 2020.

2020 marked a new era in the United States with what some consider a revival of the Civil Rights Movement, sparked by the shocking and unjust murder of George Floyd. However, systemic racism against the Black community has survived even after the emancipation of slaves 1863. The Miscarriage of Racial Injustice spans presidential eras including Eisenhower, Bush, Obama, and Trump, discussing oppressive and often deadly racial discrimination. It examines each president’s policies toward racism, including the 45th President’s response to protests and his contribution to a deep divide in the United States.

Author Derrick Newton’s timeline is a profound and compelling look at inequality from the original Civil Rights Movement to the “audacity of hope” of Barrack Obama’s election to the first half of 2020. This unforgiving chronicle will stick with you and inspire you to join and endure the fight for equality.
