What I Think About 'Freedom Riders'


A group of African-American protesters rode buses into the South to attract attention to bus terminals that've not yet been desegregated. The brave young teenagers who led this nonviolent movement were attacked. This saddens me, but the fact that it gained attention throughout the world. People that risk their lives to show the wrongdoings of our government motivate me. I want the world to realize that everyone is equal, regardless of their skin color, or the way they talk, or the way they dress.
