    Description of All Deliberate Speed: Reflections on the First Half-Century of Brown V. Board of Education

    In what John Hope Franklin calls an essential work on race and affirmative action, Charles Ogletree, Jr., tells his personal story of growing up a Brown baby against a vivid pageant of historical characters that includes, among others, Thurgood Marshall, Martin Luther King, Jr., Earl Warren, Anita Hill, Alan Bakke, and Clarence Thomas. A measured blend of personal memoir, exacting legal analysis, and brilliant insight, Ogletree’s eyewitness account of the legacy of Brown v. Board of Education offers a unique vantage point from which to view five decades of race relations in America.
