New book with local ties explores civil rights revolution


Rehoboth Beach  Delaware  19971United States
In the 1960s, Alabama was the epicenter of the civil rights movement. A new book written by John Archibald, Pulitzer Prize winner and brother of CAMP Rehoboth co-founder Murray Archibald, explores that movement through the voice of their Methodist preacher father, the Rev. Robert L. Archibald Jr.
The recently published “Shaking the Gates of Hell: A Search for Family and Truth in the Wake of the Civil Rights Revolution” takes the church to task for muzzling preachers who believed in equal rights at a time when those clergy members were looked to as a community’s moral authority. Using Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s “Letter from Birmingham Jail” as a reference point, the book explores how the letter wasn’t a call to action for Black people, but instead to white people, who were too careful and cautious during the movement.
