“…of all the leaders of the civil rights movement, Bayard Rustin lived and worked in the deepest shadows, not because he was a closeted gay man but because he wasn’t trying to hide who he was…I ask that if you teach children one new name from the heroes of black history, please let it be Bayard Rustin.”~ Henry Louis Gates, Jr.

This week we turn our focus to Bayard Rustin, Civil Right and Gay Rights Activist. Listen in now as we celebrate and acknowledge a wonderful human in Black History.
