Remembering civil rights photojournalist, Charles Moore

The World

We remember photographer Charles Moore, who made his name taking iconic Civil Rights photographs down south during the 1960’s. He died at the age of 79, Thursday. Hank Klibanoff, who is the author of the book, “The Race Beat: The Press, the Civil Rights Struggle, and the Awakening of a Nation,” helps us remember the life and work of this great photojournalist.
