In this compelling audiobook, civil rights pioneer Claudette Colvin shares her transformative story, joined by acclaimed author Phillip Hoose. Set in Montgomery, Alabama, 1955, it recounts how fifteen-year-old Claudette, fed up with racial injustice, boldly refuses to relinquish her bus seat—a pivotal act of bravery that predates Rosa Parks by nine months. Enhanced with music and special effects, Claudette Colvin: I Want Freedom Now! highlights how one teenager's courageous stand for justice can impact history.
