00:00So it appears the darkies are at it again, attempting to overthrow our system so that
00:10they can become a powerful race.
00:12A few days ago, some of you were present for the meeting we had with Thurgood Marshall
00:17and the NAACP.
00:20He and his legal team in New York are willing to come all the way down to Clarendon, South
00:26Carolina to fight for the equality of our children.
00:31My feet are killing me, and it's hot.
00:34It's not fair, nor is it the will of God, to have our black children walk to school
00:39because they don't have a bus to bring them.
00:41I don't know what's wrong with me.
00:44I thought for sure this was going to be the one for us.
00:48What did I do?
00:49Hey man, Sister Taylor, how are you doing today?
00:55This is so beautiful.
00:56Yes, it is.

01:11I prayed and I prayed for God to show me the way.

01:22Tell me, brothers and sisters, will you trust in the Lord with all your heart until you
01:40die?
01:41Can we overcrowd our buses so that your students can have a way to sleep in?
01:46But it's hard out here.
01:48It's horror.
01:49Never retreat from a good cause, and we are a good cause.
01:53What kind of people don't like being told no, Rita?
01:57I could not have completed this last year without you.
02:01Now, I know you're scared.
02:04This is new for everybody.
02:08But you just got finished singing that you will trust in the Lord.
02:12Now, will you or won't you?
02:19Will you or won't you?
