What do you guys know about this?

Freedom Riders | American Experience | PBS Video

Great PBS video about a bunch of black and white civil activists who challenged 'the system' in the South back in the 1960s.

I didn't realize they were from your great city, of Washington DC either. Very nice!

The riders themselves were not all from DC. The Freedom ride started in DC and was supposed to end in New Orleans.
