"In April 1967, Robert F. Kennedy knelt in a crumbling shack in Mississippi trying to coax a response from a listless child. The toddler sat picking at dried rice and beans spilled over the dirt floor as Kennedy touched the boy's distended stomach and stroked his face. After several minutes with little response, the senator walked out the back door, wiping away tears. In Delta Epiphany, Ellen B. Meacham tells the story of Kennedy's visit, while also examining the forces of history, economics, and politics that shaped the lives of the children he met in Mississippi in 1967 and the decades that followed"--

Book Details

Table of Contents

Now this problem has to be faced
We were to try harder than anyone else
It's to hell with Bobby K
They are starving
Wherever one looks in this land, whatever one sees that is the work of man
I just couldn't make a living
A terrible reflection on our society
We need to make an effort together
You don't know what I saw!
I'd feel better if I were doing what I think ought to be done
Bring the poor people to Washington
It let us know that there was somebody who cared
We don't speak of statistics, numbers, we speak of human beings.
