In our ongoing trajectory of honoring courage, we celebrate the life of William Lewis Moore.

“Known for standing up for his beliefs,” Moore, as a Postman, walked to protest segregation, and along with Black student protestors, was jailed for opposing the injustices that were inflicted upon Black Americans because of the color of our skin. On April 23, 1963, Moore was killed for the righteous stand he took against societal and institutional racism.
