Lonnie King and Charles Black are two amazing people who have never stopped working for social justice.  Both were college students in Atlanta in the early 60s and both played pivotal roles in the desegreation of Atlanta and the entire Civil Rights movement across America.  They have been working hard to help form the CCHR and to commemorate the upcoming 50th Anniversary of the Student Movement in Atlanta.  Here is an interview with them on the 45th Anniversay of Dr. King's "Dream" Speech-- I can't think of two more authentic folks to reflect on our progress.
