Synopsis
In January 1956, the home of Martin Luther King, the leader of the Montgomery Improvement Association, was bombed; by December, the black citizens campaign had ended segregation on the citys buses. In this survey of 1956, Simon Hall describes how frustration with the post-war order caused ordinary people across the world - in places as far-flung as Algeria, Eastern Europe, South Africa, Cyprus and Cuba - to speak out, take to the streets and sometimes die in the bid for greater freedoms.
