Have No Fear

"Have No Fear reminds us what it meant to live under a system where segregation was important enough to kill for and where being treated with dignity and respect was a whites-only entitlement." --The New York Times Book Review "A gutsy, American patriot and treasure . . . an important slice of American history."--Dan Rather "Charles Evers has given us one of the most extraordinary memoirs about race in America that I know.

The still-smoking gun -- bearing the fingerprints of Byron De La Beckwith, a staunch white supremacist -- was recovered moments later in some nearby bushes.
