James J. Kilpatrick was a journalist, and columnist whose conservative voice rang out loudly and widely through the twentieth century. William Hustwit delivers a comprehensive study of Kilpatrick's importance to the civil rights era and explores how his resistance to desegregation and egalitarianism culminated in an enduring form of conservatism that revealed a nation's unease with racial change.
