The dramatic escalation of U.S. involvement in Vietnam in 1965 eclipsed civil rights legislation, which had dominated White House and congressional attention during the first half of the decade. The two issues intersected on January 6, 1966, when the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC) became the first civil rights organization to formally oppose the war, protesting the injustice of drafting African Americans to fight for the freedom of the South Vietnamese people when they themselves were still denied basic freedoms at home. Selma to Saigon explores the impact of the Vietnam War on the national civil rights movement. Before the war gained widespread attention, the New Left, SNCC, and the Congress of Racial Equality (CORE) worked together to create biracial alliances in order to promote significant political and social gains in Washington. Contention over the war, however, exacerbated preexisting generational and ideological tensions that undermined the coalition, and Daniel S. Lucks analyzes the causes and consequences of this disintegration. This powerful narrative illuminates the effects of the Vietnam War on the goals of leaders such as Whitney Young Jr., Stokely Carmichael, Roy Wilkins, Bayard Rustin, and Martin Luther King Jr., as well as other activists who faced the threat of the military draft along with race~related discrimination and violence. Selma to Saigon is an engrossing study of how this controversial war divided the African American community. Providing new insights into the rise and decline of the civil rights movement, this book fills a significant gap in the literature about one of the most tumultuous periods in American history.…
