If I Can Sit Down For Freedom,

Black Women Are Very Capable Of Leading Our Organizations. I Believe That Firmly.

I Was Ready To Die But Give My Consent Never. Never, Never.

All I Was Trying To Do Was Get Home From Work.

I Knew Someone Had To Take The First Step. So I Made Up My Mind Not To Move.

I Learned To Put My Trust In God And To See Him As My Strength. Long Ago I Set My Mind To Be A Free Person And Not To Give In To Fear. I Always Felt That It Was My Right To Defend Myself If I Could. I Have Learned Over The Years That When One's Mind Is Made Up, This Diminishes Fear; Knowing What Must Be Done Does Away With Fear.
