The Last Words…
“My entire life’s pursuit has been to learn to dream with my eyes open — to understand the terrain that I’m moving over, the price to be paid in pursuit of those dreams, those goals, and then to maintain at all costs the courage to continue that pursuit. And one gets to that space through study.”
— Dr. Harry Edwards, Renowned Sociologist and Civil Rights Activist
