"We've come a long way since 1964. Most of the young people have no idea what happened prior to 1964. It's important to know your past so you can live your future."

Fighting for Education “I am just as proud of Manual as agraduate of Manual, as those people areof Central, Richwoods and Woodruff aswell, so I am especially concerned aboutwhat appears to be a trend to attack thegood will and reputation of the peoplewho volunteer at Manual. I know therehas been some attempts to, how should I
say,to pressure some of the advisory council
toeither give up the ship, to give up the
fight butthey don’t intend to; so we don’t intend tostand by while lawyers and other peopleattempt to attack their credibility. So you
areon notice now that if this trend continues
thefight is on with the NAACP”. ~ Donald R. Jackson
