Autherine Lucy was one of the people who broke the race barrier put up in a segregated education system. She applied for admission to the all-white University of Alabama, and won her right to be considered for admission in the Supreme Court of the United States. Her courage, in a situation where she was highly visible and the subject of strong antipathy, is hard for me to imagine.
