We have tolerance, respect, and equality in our written laws but not in the hearts of some of our people.

I was the first black child to desegregate the all-white William Frantz Elementary School in Louisiana in 1960.

I like to share my story with children, and they are amazed by the story.

You cannot look at a person and judge him or her by the color of their skin.

None of our kids come into the world knowing anything about disliking one another.

Evil looks like you and I. I know what evil looks like, and I know that it comes in all shades and colors.

My message is really that racism has no place in the hearts and minds of our children.

Bravery knows no age or gender.

Love is Love. Better to Love than Hate!!!

When it comes to love, never be reckless with someone else’s heart.
