Taylor Branch, a civil rights historian once expressed his surprise that Montgomery, Alabama, became the nucleus of the civil rights movement: “There weren’t many real activists in Montgomery at the time.” Branch did not think that the people in Montgomery had “a heart” for activism. Everything changed the Monday morning that the bus boycott started (initiated by Rosa Park’s arrest); suddenly, for the Blank Folk of Montgomery their time to act had come-and despite the personal risk, they acted together as a united community. Montgomery might not have been filled with the type of people we often label as activists; still, it was filled with people who were ready to do what was right. This is the type of community we hope to create: a community with a heart for Christ’s mission, ready to act together for Christ’s sake in the world.
