Victory over segregation on a major southern campus. Weaving together personal and public history, ""We Shall Not Be Moved"" chronicles the tumultuous events surrounding the desegregation of Georgia's flagship institution. Robert A. Pratt debunks the myth that the University of Georgia desegregated with very little violent opposition, demonstrating how local political leaders throughout the state sympathized with - even aided - the student protesters. Tracing the stories of Horace Ward, Hamilton Holmes, and Charlayne Hunter, Pratt's book is a testament to those who bravely challenged years of legalized segregation.
