They conducted themselves in high standards, with courage and determination, and they were victorious. They overcame.

We were segregated throughout the community, and it was pretty brutal, actually. It didn't appear to be, on the surface.People got along and we had great relationships, but there was discrimination that impacted adversely the ability of the African-American community to progress.
