My cousin smiled at everyone, bought my son candies, rushed to help when the bombs fell. All that ended on Friday night, says Ghada Ageel, visiting professor at the University of Alberta
I just realized that it's April 23.
That means it's the anniversary of the Farmville, Virginia Motion High School student strike.
What? You don't know about that?
Well, in 1951, Barbara Johns was fed up with the deplorable conditions in her segregated school, so she organized a strike. She was inspired by labor strikes.
