But with a strong support system and fiery self-discipline, Elijah utilized the momentum of the civil rights movement to overcome the obstacles of poverty and racism to effect change at a time when our country so badly needed it. In We're Better Than This, young readers will learn not only that we must be and do better than our oppressors but that it is our shared responsibility as a nation to keep our democracy intact because it is the only way to pursue freedom, justice, and equality for all.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library J -- Juvenile Biography B Cummings Cu Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kahuku P/S Library J -- Juvenile Biography B Cummings Cu Checked In Add Copy to MyList
