'Freedom Riders'

Just watched the "Freedom Riders" documentary that PBS aired in May; I had taped it and just got around to checking it out. It's really moving, how these men and women of different races from all over the country risked their lives to combat hatred - and did so with peaceful means.

The tag line for the promotional poster asks "Could you get on the bus?" Definitely makes you think about whether you'd have the courage to endure beatings, fire bombings and police intimidation to stand up for the cause.
