8. Thank you for sharing your experience!

I was raised in a rural town that was not at all diverse. However, my grandmother told us about her experience as a child being harassed and bullied by the KuKluxKlan because they also targeted Catholics. I went to a Jesuit University in a large city and it was very liberal in many ways. My favorite history class was Black History. Our text was “From Freedom to Slavery” by John Hope Franklin. I wish that could be required reading for everyone. One of my English professors was a Holocaust survivor and her perspective was intensely invaluable. My Ethics professor challenged us incessantly. He wore a huge button every day that said “Question Authority “. This was late sixties so we had all kinds of protests and sit ins happening on campus and in the city. I am thankful for those experiences and here I am all these years later out in the streets with my signs. I appreciate this DU Family! Insist; Resist; Persist.
