The_Vernon_Jones_Story

The Vernon Jones Story In my opinion the most pivotal character in this story was Little Dee. The story is about a preacher by the name of Vernon Jones who is played by James Earl Jones. Vernon is an outspoken minister and a civil rights advocate with strong beliefs. The movie takes place in the 1950’s in Alabama, a time when people like Vernon didn’t exist. It depicts the life of Vernon Jones, the man who preceded Martin Luther King Jr. He was a pastor of a Montgomery, Alabama Baptist Church. He campaigned tirelessly for Civil Rights long before anyone else, and was truly a founder of the civil rights movement. Before leaving as pastor, Johns passed on his duties to Reverend King, who is surprisingly a very minor character in the story. James Earl Jones played the role of the Reverend Vernon Johns, as the leader of a black congregation in Montgomery in the early 1950s. vernon, little, jones, dee, rights, life, civil, character, story, pivotal, movie, influence, ways, way, time, strong, reverend, played, pastor, movement, montgomery, man, king, johns, james, family, early, earl, daughter, clearly, before, alabama, yet, wouldn’t, without
