Stories of the Quest for Civil Rights

The story on this link is about a man that was not recognized during the Civil Rights Movement. Bayard Rustin had many accomplishments towards the civil rights movement. He did things similar to that of MLK Jr. in hopes of having equality for the African-Americans of this time. Many of the issues that the Delany sisters in HOS dealt with, were addressed by Rustin. There are a lot of people that should get credit for their efforts during the movement, but many did not get that recognition.
