Examines the struggle for school integration in New York City. The text focuses on integrationist and Presbyterian pastor Milton Galamison whose militant approach to the struggle deeply divided the city. It explores Galamison's early years and the political and social context of his thinking.
What caused one of America''s most promising civil rights movements to implode on the eve of change? Knocking at Our Own Door chronicles the life of New York''s preeminent but little-studied integrationist, Milton A. Galamison, and his controversial struggle to improve the lives of the city''s most underprivileged children. This detailed account brings insight into the complexities of urban politics, race relations, and school reform.
