"Honigsberg's narrative conveys the emotions and personal dangers activists faced and examines the work of three charismatic black leaders: A.Z. Young, Robert Hicks, and Gayle Jenkins. He describes how the Deacons worked with the Bogalusa Voters League to boycott the white owned businesses in the downtown area and to integrate the local schools, restaurants, parks, and paper mill.
He also relates the story of Gary Duncan, a black man charged with battery for touching a white boy in Plaquemines Parish, the fiefdom of arch-segregationist Leander Perez. Honigsberg was part of the team that took the case all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court and eventually established the constitutional right to a jury trial.".
