About Thomas M. Armstrong:

In the Segregated Deep South, when lynching, Klansmen and Jim Crow laws ruled, there stood a line of foot soldiers ready to sacrifice their lives for the right to vote, to enter rooms marked ‘White Only,’ and to live with simple dignity. They were called Freedom Riders, and Thomas M. Armstrong III was one of them. He was at the forefront of early protests led by black Southerners for voting rights and equal public accommodations from 1958-1963, resulting in threats that had him running for his life.
