He agreed to join the students in staging sit-in protests if they first tried to negotiate the integration of downtown Knoxville's lunch counters and those negotiations failed. After the negotiations collapsed, Proudfoot fulfilled his part of the bargain, at first reluctantly but later with enthusiasm, and emerged as a prominent figure in the movement. The second edition of this work includes an extensive introduction by Michael Mayer that places Diary of a Sit-In in proper perspective in the movement for use of nonviolent direct action, a chronology of events, a new after word by the author, and illustrations. \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"University of Illinois Press","offers":[{"title":"Diary of a Sit-In | Merrill Proudfoot | Paperback | 0252060628 | Used: Very Good | Back Stacks C 1759619","offer_id":49199698116760,"sku":"1759619","price":12.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0492\/1609\/4360\/files\/71o1jPzH66L.jpg?v=1780697741","url":"https:\/\/roundaboutbookstore.com\/products\/diary-of-a-sit-in","provider":"Roundabout Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
