Mary would probably been a fifth bombing victim at Sixteenth Street: she attended church there and was close friends but happened not to go to church that day.Trey Greenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16142385403939779402noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4061009.post-24494884975990801532014-03-15T22:07:43.149+01:002014-03-15T22:07:43.149+01:00This from Pete de Lissovoy:

I knew her husband, Cordell Reagon in NYC, a very cool guy and a beautiful singer, one of the original Freedom Singers. He along with Charles Sherrod founded SNCC in Albany, GA. Sort of amazing that SNCC and the Movement in Albany GA had like world class music and singers to go out on the protests with from the likes of Bernice and Cordell Reagon, and Rutha Harris and the others. They went to jail too--and recently sang at the White House. Bernice was one of the very first marchers and protesters, for which she was expelled from historically black Albany State College (about a year ago they finally gave the expelled SNCC students honorary degrees). Gives you an idea of the terror and pressure in those days that the black college kicked out the students who protested segregation and Jim Crow which oppressed the black college. Bernice has some unusual, compelling and chilling stories of those days really worth reading in the book of women's stories from SNCC in those days, "Hands on the Freedom Plow" (U of Illinois).Geoffrey Foxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04041450398780043453noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4061009.post-29869679408250231192014-03-15T18:51:04.187+01:002014-03-15T18:51:04.187+01:00People interested in this exhibit and website, mig...People interested in this exhibit and website, might also be interested in the veterans of the civil rights website,http://www.crmvet.org.Dirk van Nouhuyshttp://www.wandd.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4061009.post-4970715721805944462014-03-15T18:49:43.166+01:002014-03-15T18:49:43.166+01:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Dirk van Nouhuyshttp://www.wandd.comnoreply@blogger.com
