    "The sit-ins of the American civil rights movement were extraordinary acts of dissent in an age marked by protest. By sitting in at "whites only" lunch counters, libraries, swimming pools, and churches, young African Americans and their allies put their lives on the line, fully aware that their actions would almost inevitably incite hateful, violent responses from entrenched and increasingly desperate white segregationists. The simplicity of the act, coupled with the dignity and grace exhibited by participants, lent to the sit-in movement's sanctity and peaceful power. These cohesive essays from leading scholars offer a new appraisal of the origins, growth, and legacy of the sit-ins, largely ignored in scholarly literature.

    "Original archival research invites new ways of understanding the rhetorics of the civil rights movement. In Liturgy of Change, Elizabeth Ellis Miller examines civil rights mass meetings as a transformative rhetorical, and religious, experience. Scholars of rhetoric have analyzed components of the civil rights movement, including sit ins, marches, and voter registration campaigns, as well as meeting speeches delivered by well-known figures. The mass meeting itself still is also a significant site in rhetorical studies. Miller's 'liturgy of change' framework brings attention to the pattern of religious genres-song, prayer, and testimony-that structured the events, and the ways these genres created rhetorical opportunities for ordinary people to speak up and develop their activism. To recover and reconstruct these patterns, Miller analyzes archival audio recordings of mass meetings held in Greenville and Hattisburg, Mississippi; Montgomery, Selma, and Birmingham, Alabama; Savannah, Sumter, and Albany, Georgia; St. Augustine, Florida; and Danville, Virginia."--
