From the Montgomery bus boycott to the Little Rock Nine and the Selma-Montgomery march, thousands of ordinary people made up the American civil rights movement in its founding decade. Their stories were told in Eyes on the Prize, an Emmy-winning documentary broadcast on PBS in 1987 and hailed as "the principal film account of the most important American social justice movement of the 20th century" (Clayborne Carson). This 25th-anniversary edition of the companion volume written by Juan Williams and the documentary's production team includes a new preface, introduction by Julian Bond, and epilogue.
