John Hope Franklin lived through America's most defining twentieth-century transformation, the dismantling of legally protected racial segregation. A renowned scholar, he has explored that transformation in its myriad aspects, notably in his 3.5-million-copy bestseller, From Slavery to Freedom. Born in 1915, he, like every other African American, could not help but participate: he was evicted from whites-only train cars, confined to segregated schools, threatened--once with lynching--and consistently subjected to racism's denigration of his humanity. Yet he managed to receive a Ph.D. from Harvard; become the first black historian to assume a full professorship at a white institution, Brooklyn College; and be appointed chair of the University of Chicago's history department and, later, John B. Duke Professor at Duke University. He has reshaped the way African American history is understood and taught and become one of the world's most celebrated historians, garnering over 130 honorary degrees. But Franklin's participation was much more fundamental than that.

From his effort in 1934 to hand President Franklin Roosevelt a petition calling for action in response to the Cordie Cheek lynching, to his 1997 appointment by President Clinton to head the President's Initiative on Race, and continuing to the present, Franklin has influenced with determination and dignity the nation's racial conscience. Whether aiding Thurgood Marshall's preparation for arguing Brown v. Board of Education in 1954, marching to Montgomery, Alabama, in 1965, or testifying against Robert Bork's nomination to the Supreme Court in 1987, Franklin has pushed the national conversation on race toward humanity and equality, a life long effort that earned him the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the nation's highest civilian honor, in 1995. Intimate, at times revelatory, Mirror to America chronicles Franklin's life and this nation's racial transformation in the twentieth century, and is a powerful reminder of the extent to which the problem of America remains the problem of color.

Works just as well as the official parts, for less
Color: Omni S1 Pro 17P
Been going through these for about two years now across multiple replacements and they perform just as well as the official Eufy parts. Main brush, side brushes, filters, dust bags, mop — all fit correctly and do the job without any issues. Honestly if you’ve got a Eufy Omni S1 Pro, just buy these instead. No reason to pay extra for the official kit when these hold up just as well over time. No complaints

Not a good fit with the eufy
Color: Omni S1 Pro 17P
It’s a good value for all these pieces, but the dust bag does not fit well with the Juvi. I haven’t tried the other piece pieces. I will return it.

Mostly fine replacement parts
Color: Omni S1 Pro 17P
I can't get either of the rolling mops to snap into place no matter what i do, might have to tack on something so they stay in place. The main brush was a fine fit, but the side brushes seems more flat than the stock ones and it makes some weird noise now, they did snap on though. Filter was fine though and I haven't tried a dust bag yet, still good value even if I can't get the mops to fit for me!
