location: Borders Birmingham, MI, At the Dark End of the Street September 16, 2010 7:00 PM Birmingham - Downtown - Borders 34300 Woodward , Birmingham, MI, The United States description: The author gives us the never-before-told history of how the civil rights movement began; how it was in part started in protest against the ritualistic rape of black women by white men who used economic intimidation, sexual violence, and terror to derail the freedom movement; and how those forces persisted unpunished throughout the Jim Crow era when white men assaulted black women to enforce rules of racial and economic hierarchy. |
