#3 I barely remember that time. we lived on highway 31 just across the Alabama River from Montgomery at the time. We later moved back near Selma (where I was born) and witnessed the selma to Montgomery march. We lived 3 miles from the spot Viola Liuzo (sp?) was murdered. Everyone knew who commited the murder but was very afraid of the Klan and what they would do. I know a lot of people who didn't like what the Klan was doing, including my Father, but the Klan being a terrorist organization they were afraid. Rosa Parks was a courageous woman. May she rest easy.
