es\x1e750b"In Riding into History, Amy Nathan draws on several years of personal co
nversations with Sarah Keys Evans alongside extensive historical and legal resea
rch to present a biography of Evans and her central role in the struggle for civ
il rights. A member of the Women's Army Corps, Evans was arrested in 1952 in Roa
noke Rapids, NC for refusing to give up her seat to a white man on a bus, three 
years before Rosa Parks was arrested in Alabama for the same offense. Today, a m
onument in Roanoke Rapids; Martin Luther King Jr. Park honors Evans and her purs
uit of justice. Often overlooked in typical accounts of the Civil Rights era, Ke
ys Evans' arrest and court case served as a crucial landmark in the fight to end
 segregation on public transportation. The book is comprised of several interwov
en stories of Keys Evans' life, from her early childhood in Washington, NC throu
gh her participation in the movement to end Jim Crow policies, closing with a ch
apter containing brief accounts of some of the other men and women who took stan
ds against transportation segregation from the mid-19th century onward"-- Provid
