Civil Rights

Growing up I really never experienced the civil right movements, though growing up in a mixed community. Given the assignment i looked through the weeks events and this one seemed like the perfect one. Rarely would i get a chance to see someone who was around for MLK and someone who spoke at a presidential inauguration. So seeing Rev. Dr. Lowrey seemed to be the best event to see. After being introduced the standing ovation really spoke for its self. His story about being asked to join the president on inauguration day was awe inspiring because there are so many people and this was special to hear him speak in front of us. Hearing Rev. Dr. Lowrey speak is something that i will charish for a long time.
