It s in the Action: Memories of a Nonviolent Warrior, by C.T. Vivian with Steve Fiffer. Foreword by Andrew Young. Published 2021 by NewSouth Books, 208 pages, $24.95.
C.T. Vivian entered Macomb High School in 1938. I never thought of using the term institutional racism to describe the place, he wrote in his posthumous memoir. This wasn t because such racism didn t exist. Rather, I just didn t know there was a term to describe what I experienced.
The book – titled,
It s in the Action: Memories of a Nonviolent Warrior, and released in March 2021 – covers Vivian s experiences in Illinois. Vivian was born in 1924. He died at age 95 on July 17 of last year, the same day as his close friend and fellow civil rights leader, Congressman John Lewis. ....

Democracy and Social Justice - Public Seminar

C. T. Vivian’s posthumous book, 
It’s in the Action: Memories of a Nonviolent Warrior, is coming out soon. This reminds me of an important 1984 New School event in which he was honored. That day, the focus came to be upon Adam Michnik. Today, I am remembering Vivian along with Michnik, as I seek to understand the challenge of simultaneously pursuing democracy and social justice.
The New York Times, April 26, 1984:
“A Polish Nobel laureate in exile stood in a church on lower Fifth Avenue yesterday and read an open letter of moral outrage from a jailed dissident in Poland to his jailer. The letter, as another speaker put it, fell like ”a tornado” on the 50th anniversary of the University in Exile.”  ....
