Calvert spent years studying and chronicling the civil rights movement. By 1982, he had concluded that the movement had largely died because the American public grew skeptical that "the national government could play a positive role in erasing social and economic injustice," a view much at odds with his own [[liberal]] thinking in that regard.<ref name=dreid/>​
