I am 76 years old, grew up in New Orleans in ingrown bigotry, discovered that black people had a last name in college, lived among them in the Army, joined a black mission church in Huntsville,AL, enrolled our children in that school(first school to integrate in the state of Alabama), coached all black athletic teams before integration, fought for Civil Rights and am still fighting for them. Lots of stories along that long way.
