In the summer of 1962 in Albany, Georgia, I marched with about 1,000 protesters. I was arrested and spent 6 days in jail in Albany.

In 1965, I took 80 people from Chicago, Illinois to Selma, Alabama, where we helped rally people and taught nonviolent tactics to those who had never marched before.

I and our local SCLC affiliate chapter in Chicago also sent money and supporters to SCLC in those early years of the Civil Rights Movement.
