Together We March tells about twenty-five of the most important protest movements around the world that changed history. The book opens with early protest provements, including the March of the Mill Children in 1903 to protect children from early labor, the Salt March in India in 1930 to secure India's independence from Britain, and the Mud March in England in 1907 for women's rights to vote. It moves to more recent protest movements including The March Against Death, against the Vietnam War in America in 1969, the Earth Day March in 1970 to encourage measures to save the planet, and the Capitol Crawl in 1990 to eliminate physical and mental barriers in people's lives.
It's an excellent first look at protest movements for upper elementary and middle grade students.
