Cradle of Freedom puts a human face on the story of the black American struggle for equality in Alabama during the 1960s.
While exceptional leaders such as Martin Luther King Jr.
, Rosa Parks, Fred Shuttlesworth, Ralph Abernathy, John Lewis, and others rose up from the ranks and carved their places in history, the burden of the movement was not carried by them alone.
