DESCRIPTION:“FREEDOM RIDERS is the powerful harrowing and ultimately inspirational 
 story of six months in 1961 that changed America forever. From May until 
 November 1961, more than 400 Black and white Americans risked their 
 lives—and many endured savage beatings and imprisonment—for simply 
 traveling together on buses and trains as they journeyed through the Deep 
 South. Deliberately violating Jim Crow laws, the Freedom Riders met with 
 bitter racism and mob violence along the way, sorely testing their belief 
 in nonviolent activism.\n\nFrom award-winning filmmaker Stanley Nelson 
 (Wounded Knee, Jonestown: The Life and Death of Peoples Temple, The Murder 
 of Emmett Till) FREEDOM RIDERS features testimony from a fascinating cast 
 of central characters: the Riders themselves, state and federal government 
 officials, and journalists who witnessed the Rides firsthand. “—PBS.org
