Only 26 and the person he saved is still alive. My goodness.
I tell my kid all the time that a lot of this history happened just before I was born. It wasn't Ancient Egypt.
I’m an atheist but if there is a hell I hope he and the twelve, who failed in their duty, are all roasting there.
Thank you for sharing this story 💔
A real g. There are a great many people on this here internet who talk tough about revolution and don't have a tenth of the balls this man had.
One sign of how many little-know civil rights martyrs there are is that I grew up deep in the Episcopal Church and just heard of this.
Also the past isn’t even past. My parents were teenagers in August 1965.
My son, born in 2007, received his First Communion from a Catholic priest who was at Selma.
