One of the churches struck by probable arson in 1996 was Little Zion Baptist Church in Alabama. This book draws on the voices and memories of church members to share a history of Little Zion, from its beginnings as a brush arbor around the time of emancipation, to its key role in the civil rights movement, to its burning and its rebuilding.
