Importance of SNCC as Movement of 'New Abolitionism' Related by Zinn There are so many aspects to the race issue in this country that the numerous movements that have arisen need to be studied and un- derstood in order that there should be a complete appreciation of the efforts of those who seek once and for all time to end, the injustice that dates back to the introduction of slavery in Am'rica.

A very interesting account is given of the role played in the SNCC by its chairman. John Lewis. He delivered one of the speeches at the August. 1963 March on Washington, but was induced to change his prepared text in which he had blamed our government for inaction.
