Publisher's summary

Black hands in Fayette County, Tennessee, were free to pick cotton and corn but were barred from casting ballots. A whirlwind of change blew through the county when Black landowners like John McFerren and Harpman Jameson organized registration drives to help Black citizens vote—but not without violent attempts to stop it. White farmers evicted Black sharecroppers off their land, leaving families stranded and forced to live in tents. White shopkeepers also refused to sell to them.

But the voiceless did finally speak. In 1965 the Voting Rights Act legally ended voter discrimination.

Alice Faye Duncan’s powerful words not only capture the Tent City struggle but also the hope, determination, and unwavering courage of everyday people.
