Being loud to fight against what's wrong. Being loud to ensure that justice is served to all the lives that have been lost due to racism. We fight for George Floyd and Breonna Taylor and all those lost lives that have not received justice. The fight will not stop until there is equality for all. ]]> 2020-10-12 21:09:24 UTC https://padlet.com/susangstrauss/flsbogp953i1jpjt/wish/822912877 MsHudson5 https://padlet.com/susangstrauss/flsbogp953i1jpjt/wish/822913002 This is for the undefeated, Ruby Bridges who, at the age of 7, dared to enter an all white classroom as a black child.

Born a slave...

Determined to have freedom...
Traveling 90 miles to freedom 

Guiding others to safety and sharing these resonating words...

I had right to, liberty or death, if I could not have one, I would have the other." ]]> 2020-10-12 21:10:37 UTC https://padlet.com/susangstrauss/flsbogp953i1jpjt/wish/822914707 cusui https://padlet.com/susangstrauss/flsbogp953i1jpjt/wish/822915146 This is for the undefeated, Mia Yamamoto, born in a concentration camp because of their race and living her true self today as a transgender woman, helping others born into a prison pipeline as a criminal justice attorney.]]> 2020-10-12 21:10:55 UTC https://padlet.com/susangstrauss/flsbogp953i1jpjt/wish/822915146 https://padlet.com/susangstrauss/flsbogp953i1jpjt/wish/822915484 The First People who suffered and toiled.  The healers and dancers, the leaders and elders who teach the next generation the songs and culture.  They are still HERE not destroyed.  Cusack

Action speaks louder than words. Mahatma Gandhi inspired Martin Luther King to let his actions match his words. Because of Gandhi's actions Martin had a DREAM. Martin's DREAM inspires others to use their voice, talent, or thoughts to make a difference.]]> 2020-10-12 21:11:51 UTC https://padlet.com/susangstrauss/flsbogp953i1jpjt/wish/822916555 https://padlet.com/susangstrauss/flsbogp953i1jpjt/wish/822916736 This is for the undefeated, the ones who were thought to me marginal in society who decided to stand up, and stand proud and never gave up the fight to make a change in our country.  To take the tossed away, men and woman of society who are just the same as everyone else to have equal rights for all aspects of life in America.  The fight that continues to be fought and will be again soon.  The proud men and women of the LGBTQ community.  Never give up.
