Fall 1964One day my daddy said, “Baby, how would you like to go to the
“white” school?”I replied, “Yes!” without really
thinking about it.
![Page 17: Freedom Never Dies Lake Orienta 2/19/13](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022081417/5681653b550346895dd7bc13/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
My mother was opposed because she knew that
people were being killed for participating in the Civil
Rights movement.

The night before…I received an
anonymous phone call froma white woman warning me
not to go to the “white”school.
![Page 20: Freedom Never Dies Lake Orienta 2/19/13](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022081417/5681653b550346895dd7bc13/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
The very next day…
My daddy drove me to Sanford Jr. High. I was escortedinto the building by the
Police. I told no one about the phone call.
