“I may not be able to read or write—but I have the capacity to die!”
Every time I return to the history of the Civil Rights Movement, and I return often, I am struck, as indeed many of us are, by the extraordinary courage of the people—of the rank-and-file and of the leaders—who participated in the movement. (And do we need to keep repeating the details so we can appreciate that there is another, more courageous and transcendent way of living?)
