This is what I am talking about standing up for righteousness. Today that is not the norm because some are afraid. Well the time has come that we will repeat history if we do not take a stand on issues. This is the reason why we the world is in the shape it is in today because many black folks have arrived and they do not give a damn about others.
I want to thank all of those who were a part of the movement in the 1970's surrounding the strike. I am glad I got to meet Bro. Alexander and he was a good man. I remember being in his presence during the Dr. MLK Celebrations in Whitakers over the years.
