"Yes, technology has come far since my time. But you know what has not changed? The power of peaceful protest.
Yeah, but it feels like nobody care no more..
"People do care, my dear. They just might not realize the impact their actions have. We must continue to fight for equality through nonviolent resistance."

Ugh.. Let's not start this. fell asleep on desk Zzzzzz
sighs I wish you would listen. This is important. shakes Wendy awake Wake up! This is important!
"The city passed a law requiring African Americans to sit at the back of the bus. But we refused to comply. Rosa Parks, one of our leaders, she was arrested for refusing to move."

sighs Because I believe in you. I believe that you too can be a force for change in this world. Will you let me share my story?
sits down and takes a deep breath Once upon a time, there was a young girl named Ruby Bridges. She was only six years old when she became the face of desegregation in New Orleans. Ruby had to endure constant threats and hate just for wanting an education. But she never backed down. She stood strong, just like us.
sighh.. This better be worth my time.
