Every generation has them: individuals who speak truth to power and crave freedom from arbitrary authority. This book makes two important observations in discussing Roger Williams, Thomas Paine, Elizabeth Cady Stanton, W. E. B. Du Bois and Vine Deloria, Jr. First, each believed that government must broadly tolerate individual autonomy. Second, each argued that religious orthodoxy has been a major source of society's ills - and all endured serious negative repercussions for doing so. The book challenges Christian orthodoxy and argues that part of what makes these five figures compelling is their willingness to pay the price for their convictions - much to the lasting benefit of liberty and equal justice in America. 606 $aCivil rights$zUnited States$xHistory 606 $aCivil rights workers$zUnited States$vBiography 615 0$aCivil rights$xHistory. 615 0$aCivil rights workers 676 $a973.09/9 700 $aLawrence$b Michael Anthony$f1959-$01472930 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910781971603321 996 $aRadicals in their own time$93719827 997 $aUNINA
