If I Can Sit Down For Freedom,

When People Made Up Their Minds That They Wanted To Be Free And Took Action, Then There Was A Change.

I Do The Very Best I Can To Look Upon Life With Optimism And Hope And Looking Forward To A Better Day, But I Don't Think There Is Anything Such As Complete Happiness. It Pains Me That There Is Still A Lot Of Klan Activity And Racism. I Think When You Say You're Happy, You Have Everything That You Need And Everything That You Want, And Nothing More To Wish For. I Haven't Reached That Stage Yet.

I Thought Of Emmett Till, And When The Bus Driver Ordered Me To Move To The Back, I Just Couldn’t Move.

I Did Not Get On The Bus To Get Arrested. I Got On The Bus To Go Home.

Memories Of Our Lives, Of Our Works And Our Deeds Will Continue In Others.
