Today we honor the legacy of four individuals who ignited a movement that would change the course of history ...NCAT Four

Today we honor the legacy of four individuals who ignited a movement that would change the course of history. The #NCATFour were young, but bold and followed the convictions of their hearts. Today we stand and (sit) on their shoulders. The annual #FebOne celebration begins at 8am pic.twitter.com/D5lgXKceB8

#OnThisDay in 1960: 4 Black students from @ncatsuaggies sat down at a "whites only" lunch counter, launching the #Greensboro sit-in movement against racial segregation. Today we remember the courage of the #NCATFour & the countless others who have taken a stand for civil rights. pic.twitter.com/nWfwkJm0Vp
