Delete comment: Here's a clip of "Freedom Riders" that I chose to do for my documentary presentation. I chose this piece to simply learn more about the civil rights movement that happened before my time, since it seems to be the same fight now that it was then. I want to know why things aren't changing more here in America. Maybe what they did then is something we should do now as well as something else new and different.  Just something to think about.  https://youtu.be/d0_rI2P44LM
