In 1951, witnessing the unfair conditions in her racially segregated high school, Barbara Johns led a walkout--the first public protest of its kind demanding racial equality in the U.S.--jumpstarting the American civil rights movement. Ridiculed by the white superintendent and school board, local newspapers, and others, and even after a cross was burned on the school grounds, Barbara and her classmates held firm and did not give up. Her school's case went all the way to the Supreme Court and helped end segregation as part of Brown v. Board of Education. Barbara Johns grew up to become a librarian in the Philadelphia school system. The Girl from the Tar Paper School mixes biography with social history and is illustrated with family photos, images of the school and town, and archival documents from classmates and local and national news media. The book includes a civil rights timeline, bibliography, and index."--Publisher's description. 521 0 1100|bLexile. 521 8 1100L|bLexile 526 0 Accelerated Reader AR|bMG|c7.6|d2|z159626 538 Requires Boundless App. 588 Description based on print version record. 600 10 Powell, Barbara Johns,|d1935-1991|vJuvenile literature. 600 11 Powell, Barbara Johns,|d1935-1991. 600 17 Powell, Barbara Johns,|d1935-1991.|2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01935472 648 7 1900-1999|2fast 650 0 Civil rights movements|zUnited States|xHistory|y20th century|vJuvenile literature. 650 0 Civil rights workers|zUnited States|vBiography|vJuvenile literature. 650 0 Women civil rights workers|zUnited States|vBiography |vJuvenile literature. 650 0 Segregation in education|zVirginia|xHistory|y20th century |vJuvenile literature. 650 1 Civil rights movements|zUnited States|xHistory|y20th century. 650 1 Civil rights workers|zUnited States|vBiography. 650 1 Women|vBiography. 650 1 African Americans|vBiography. 650 1 Women civil rights workers|vBiography. 650 1 Segregation in education|zVirginia|xHistory|y20th century. 650 1 Civil rights workers. 650 1 Women civil rights workers. 650 7 Civil rights movements.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00862708 650 7 Civil rights workers.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00862721 650 7 Race relations.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01086509 650 7 Segregation in education.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01111221 650 7 Women civil rights workers.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01177410 651 0 Virginia|xRace relations|xHistory|y20th century|vJuvenile literature. 651 1 Virginia|xRace relations|xHistory|y20th century. 651 7 United States.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01204155 651 7 Virginia.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01204597 655 4 Electronic books. 655 7 Biography.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01423686 655 7 History.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01411628 655 7 Juvenile works.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01411637 776 08 |iElectronic reproduction of (manifestation):|aKanefield, Teri, 1960-|tGirl from the tar paper school|dNew York : Abrams Books for Young Readers, 2014|z9781419707964|w(DLC) 2012040990|w(OCoLC)817721642 856 40 |uhttps://naper.boundless.baker-taylor.com/ng/view/library /title/0016101117|zFound on Boundless
