Diversity in books is a civil rights frontier.

I was born in a ghetto on the North Side of Pittsburgh. I was born as Emmett Till was dying and the civil rights era was being born.

He was the prominent figure of the civil rights movement, promoting diversity not just for African-Americans but for everyone. It's a privilege to be recognized on a day that people are remembering Dr. King.

I'm a child of the Civil Rights Movement.

The civil rights movement wasn't easy for anybody.

I support the Civil Rights Act and the Voting Rights Act.
