Powerful Days: Civil Rights Photography of Charles Moore, by Charles Moore, 208 pages
Charles Moore can be remembered for some of the most stirring photographs of the civil rights movement (I'll leave the google image-searching to you). Each section in this book explains what was going on in the time period that each group of photos represents. From police dogs attacking protestors, to the funeral procession at Medgar Evers' funeral, the photographs largely speak for themselves. I thought this was a good reminder of how close such a massive injustice sits in our country's past.
