Reviews
"Beyond the Voting Rights Act tells a captivating and long overdue story that bridges the historic battles for voting rights that my father led, to the landmark legislative battles for voter registration and democratic reform from the 1980s to the present. A must read during this period of ever-increasing threats to the Voting Rights Act and our American democracy." Martin Luther King, III, American human rights activist, philanthropist & advocate "Greg Moore has written a compelling book that takes us on the journey from access to the ballot box to fighting voter suppression. He reveals, in his first hand account, the behind-the-scenes struggle to secure the vote for every citizen. No book is more important to forging our future." Donna Brazile, Campaign Manager, Gore for President 2000 Campaign, and Chairperson, Democratic National Committee "As this generation wages its own battles against a tsunami of voter suppression legislation and an insurgent authoritarian movement, Moore's insights, experiences, leadership, and guidance is more urgent than ever. Any and everyone concerned about the democratic future of the United States needs this book." Dr. Clarence Lusane, noted political scientist, Howard University
