Two AHA book prizes to Penningroth for "Before the Movement"

The American Historical Association has announced its 2024 Prize Winners, and we were pleased to see that legal historian Dylan C. Penningroth (University of California, Berkeley) was a two-time winner. 

Before the Movement: The Hidden History of Black Civil Rights (Liveright, 2023) won the Beveridge Family Prize in the history of the US, Latin America, or Canada since 1492 and also the Littleton-Griswold Prize in US Law and Society.

 Congratulations to Professor Penningroth!
