I'm a ha-huge fan of the old pickup & truck photos taken by Linda Lantzy/Idaho Scenic Images. She writes on her Facebook wall that she found this old-timer near Athol Tuesday night.

"I was watching the PBS show last night called Freedom Riders. It was where a bus left Washington, D.C. and Nashville, Tennessee in what I believe was 1961. The riders were white as well as black. It showed the hardships, which included beatings and death. Cars following, threatening riders and drivers, tires flattening, bus burnings. As I watched this piece of history, I had to ask myself and wondered about others: Would you have signed the paper and got on the bus?"/Cis, From A Simple Mind. More here.

Question: Would you have gotten on the Freedom Bus, to face the KKK in the South before passage of the Civil Rights Act, knowing the possible consequences?
