The Hands of Peace: A Holocaust Survivor’s Fight for Civil Rights in the American South

Marione Ingram's inspiring story of courage, strength, and determination in the fight for civil rights is a must-read for anyone interested in American history and the struggle for equality.

As a white woman who fled Nazi Germany only to face racism in the American South, Marione became a leader in the Civil Rights Movement, protesting discrimination in housing, employment, education, and voting rights.

Her uncompromising demand for equality led her to Mississippi, where she became a leader of the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee and an educator at one of the country's most influential Freedom Schools.

Despite facing violence and intimidation from the Ku Klux Klan, Marione remained steadfast in her commitment to justice, painting the word "FREEDOM" on a charred crossbar after they burned a cross in front of one of the school's buildings.

This powerful and moving story is an inspiration to anyone fighting for equality and justice today.
