With all the attention given to Tim and SAS the past few semesters I never saw this side before. All I heard about was the protests, lawsuits, and crazy street theater. This really gives me a new insight… Go Tim!

Awesome responses Tim! I’m looking forward to participating in more actions with SAS this semester.

Ryane,

Thanks for the tip! I googled J. Vance Lewis, he is the man!

Here’s link to the full text of his book “Out of the Ditch: The Story of an Ex-Slave”

And thanks for the encouragement.
