The Gang of Four: Four Leaders, Four Communities, One Friendship

This story of four Seattle civil rights activists who led four different communities (Native American, Asian, Mexican and African American) to protest as one is unique in the history of US civil rights and will appeal to scholars and those interested in social justice.

The Muckleshoot tribe will use the book in its reservation high schools to teach about Bernie Whitebear, a Muckleshoot member and one of the Gang of Four.

The book will visually evoke the 60s with archival and personal photos from the gang's collections.

Because of the history it covers, libraries in Washington and beyond will want to have it on their shelves.
