Indeed, a rarity during the 60s and 70s. Why? Because, at that time, the African American student population at Peabody Preparatory was a mere five percent. Our parents always kept us abreast of the civil rights marches and protests. We were fully aware of the historical facts about eating at the Woolworth's lunch counter. Our monthly Woolworth's lunch experiences kept these thoughts vividly in our minds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAnother primary goal of this book is to empower readers with knowledge about growing up in the midst of civil rights unrest. In addition, this story tells how two young African American girls triumphed and studied at the prestigious Peabody Preparatory Institute of Music.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 54\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.15 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e March 20, 2026\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45539204464742,"sku":"9781967006311","price":23.83,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0599\/7255\/0758\/files\/fYZSUk2T3a9781967006311.webp?v=1776858423","url":"https:\/\/infinitylightwa.com\/products\/a-journey-of-sacrifice-and-determination-paperback","provider":"Infinity Light","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
