"The Woolworth's Sit-In" by Rachel Tisdale tells the compelling story of a group of African American students who bravely challenge racial segregation in the 1960s. Set against the backdrop of the Civil Rights Movement, the narrative follows their decision to stage a sit-in at a local Woolworth's counter, where they are denied service based on the color of their skin. Through courage, unity, and determination, they strive to bring attention to injustice and inspire change in their community. The story highlights themes of activism, friendship, and the quest for equality, showcasing the power of youth in the fight for civil rights.
