TOPIC:
Anne Moody’s autography Coming of Age in Mississippi describes race relations in the south before and during the civil rights movement. It takes a very personal view of this by chronicling how Moody herself comes of age in a racial and gendered context. Focusing on her individual path to activism and on the broader southern community in which she lived (whose voices must be represented from one oral history interview), why did some people become involved in civil rights struggles when so many other southerners did not? Consider the social, political and economic circumstances that drove certain people towards activism and also prevented others from joining the movement.
