Just Defy


The law should be blind to color, the law should just. The Civil Rights Movement finally blew through the area like a great big gust. Justice prevailed for those who fought so hard. But not without negative consequences that left our country scarred. The Civil Rights Movement was always meant to be. Because this is suppose to be the last of the free.
