Harriet Tubman
Abe Lincoln
Rosa Parks
Martin Luther King
Backbones
Hearts
Minds of Steel

Black and White
Just a color
Hard work and enterprise
Body, mind, skills
Individual but equal
They understood

Love of country
Hope
Family
Future
Freedom

They broke us free
Stand up for them
Stop the violence
No victims anymore

Act
Move
Get a job

Affirmative Action
No more

Stand up for yourself
