That's so true. If the military had it's way, I'd have never been born. My dad had to fight for a year to get married to my mother. (she was Austrian.) And when they came back to the States, the problems were just beginning.
Looking around I see some progress has been made, but not as much as we'd like to think.Good on you taking the class. The civil rights movement is the most fascinating period of time in this country, I think.
