Freedom Riders: 1961 and the Struggle for Racial JusticeThey were black and white, young and old, men and women. In the spring and summer of 1961, they put their lives on the line, riding buses through the American South to challenge segregation in interstate transport. Their story is one of the most celebrated episodes of the civil rights movement, yet a full length history has never been written until now.

They were black and white, young and old, men and women. In the spring and summer of 1961, they put their lives on the line, riding buses through the American South to challenge segregation in interstate transport. Their story is one of the most celebrated episodes of the civil rights movement, yet a full-length history has never been written until now. In these pages, acclaimed historian Raymond Arsenault provides a gripping account of six pivotal months that jolted the consciousness of America.The Freedom Riders were greeted with hostility, fear, and violence. They were jailed and beaten, their buses stoned and firebombed. In Alabama, police stood idly by as racist thugs battered them. When Martin Luther King met the Riders in Montgomery, a raging mob besieged them in a church. Arsenault recreates these moments with heart-stopping immediacy. His tightly braided narrative reaches from the White House--where the Kennedys were just awakening to the moral power of the civil rights struggle--to the cells of Mississippi's infamous Parchman Prison, where Riders tormented their jailers with rousing freedom anthems. Along the way, he offers vivid portraits of dynamic figures such as James Farmer, Diane Nash, John Lewis, and Fred Shuttlesworth, recapturing the drama of an improbable, almost unbelievable saga of heroic sacrifice and unexpected triumph.
The Riders were widely criticized as reckless provocateurs, or "outside agitators." But indelible images of their courage, broadcast to the world by a newly awakened press, galvanized the movement for racial justice across the nation. Freedom Riders is a stunning achievement, a masterpiece of storytelling that will stand alongside the finest works on the history of civil rights.

Great deal, my face loves them
Love these and got them on a great deal! The retinol and vitamin c my face loves!! The hylalonic acid seems super similar to the vitamin c in formula, I use that one less.

My Skin Looks Brighter and More Hydrated
I use the vitamin C and hyaluronic acid in the morning after I wash my face, and then I use the retinol at night followed by my moisturizer. This routine has made a noticeable difference in my skin.
I especially see it under my eyes and with my crow’s feet. My skin looks more hydrated, brighter, and overall healthier. On days I forget to bring the serums with me when I travel, I can actually tell. My skin feels more dehydrated and just looks more dull.
When I’m consistent, my face looks more plump, glowy, and hydrated. That alone tells me these are working.
They are also very lightweight and not greasy or oily at all. They absorb quickly into the skin and do not have a strong smell, which I really appreciate.

Would highly recommend
I was looking for something new and not crazy expensive. I have been using for 3 weeks now and I seeing good results. My skin is looking hydrated and feels awesome. I did also purchase the brightening moisturizer in addition to the serums as well as a night cream for my evening routine. Will continue to purchase. I do see that the droppers can stick but nothing that prevents you from using the product. There is very little scent which is a plus for my liking.
