remember the children of the 60s remember
Flannery Hipp, Class of 2026
the students
of all colors
riding on buses who gave the students
sitting at lunch counters the power to lead the sncc
helping people vote remember julian
giving their time who wrote about equity
to the children of the future while teaching college students
the students of the future who was the chairmen
remember ella of the naacp
who joined the harlem renaissance who wrote poems and articles
just to take a stand inspiring readers to do the same
who fought for equity like so many other
for women and people of color students
who said that strong people who use their voices
don’t need strong leaders to stand up
remember john like ella and john and diane and julian
who led the selma marches and fight for those
to change his home state’s mind whose names are not
who was a member written in history
of the us house of representatives like the four leaders
who liked nothing more than of the sncc
to make good trouble
remember diane
who led a student movement in nashville
to protest segregation
who fought for peace and equity
