"George Lewis explores the various and subtle ways that white southern segregationists used anticommunist rhetoric to undermine the civil rights movement. He examines the thoughts, traditions, and actions of those southerners from the end of the Second World War to the Voting Rights Act of 1965, the period when the movement put the South's segregated society under immense pressure." "Based on oral histories and the papers of southern politicians, journalists, and activists, this history shows how anticommunism intersected with other weapons in the arsenal of Massive Resistance."--BOOK JACKET.
