Description

A stunning image taken during a march from Selma to Montgomery on 21 March 1965 is among the most iconic of the civil rights era. Rabbi Abraham Joshua Heschel, with his long white beard and overflowing curly hair, walks arm in arm with prominent civil rights activists. Bearing a proud smile, he marches in solidarity next to a more solemn looking Reverend Fred Shuttlesworth to his left and former United Nations Under-Secretary General for Special Political Affairs and Nobel Peace Prize winner Ralph Bunche on his right. A nun on the other end of the front line, who is holding civil rights activist John Lewis, whose skull had been fractured by Alabama state troopers a few weeks earlier during another march for voting rights, appears as if she was virtually dancing to the thrill of protest. Heschel and Martin Luther King Jr. glance toward the camera as if to signal to the photographer that they understand the historic weight of the moment. ... At an epic moment on the fraught streets of Selma, when brave citizens risked their lives championing civil rights, Heschel stood at the nexus of religious leaders who linked tradition, theology, and ritualistic practice to the fight against social injustice. To this day, Heschel remains a symbol of his generation's struggle to make Jewish values relevant to post-World War II America through civic action. Book jacket.
