Description: Unfinished Agenda, Junius Williams's inspiring political memoir, offers an inside look at the Black Power Movement that emerged during the Civil Rights Movement of the 1960s. At a time when urban blacks in the North were becoming a powerful force through confrontation politics in the streets and election victories in city hall, Williams rose as a key player in changing the power dynamics in Newark, New Jersey. A prominent community leader, advocate, organizer, and the youngest person ever to be elected president of the National Bar Association, Williams describes his personal journey that led him to many years of service and community organizing.
