Christian pastors who started the civil

rights movement in their own churches

King jr. man that would have studied and

02 - 56

watched and admired from my entire life

03 - 00

that we're all made in the image of our

03 - 04

Lord students like james Meredith who

03 - 09

were persecuted for standing up for

03 - 12

their right to the same education as

03 - 15

every other American student young

03 - 19

people like the nine brave students who

03 - 22

quietly said and they said very

03 - 27

stoically but very proudly at the

03 - 31

Jackson Public Library in 1961 and by

03 - 37

the way I would add the word very

03 - 39

bravely they said very bravely

03 - 41

and finally martyrs like Sargent Medgar

03 - 45

Wylie Evers

03 - 52

Normandy in the Second World War and

04 - 14

when he came back home to Mississippi he

04 - 18

kept fighting for the same rights and

04 - 20

freedom that he had defended in the war

04 - 24

  1. Evers became a civil rights leader

04 - 28

in his community he helped fellow

African Americans register to vote
