Chains unbound , Shackles broken , Voices unheard finally spoken..... A raised fist to empower a community , to show strength , defiance , resistance and unity.... John Carlos & Tommie Smith A man who had a dream , so big it endures til this very day , so big , it can't be cast cast away.... Martin Luther King A lady who sat in front of the bus , thinking , why seating there was such a fuss , confident and brave.... Rosa Parks A man loved by an African nation , capturing all with with his own brand of Afrobeat music creation.... Fela Kuti A lady tending to the sick and wounded , bruised and battered , though a ghastly sight , ensuring their well-being , to her ... was all that mattered....Mary Seacole Throughout history and even now , many have shown.... B-   Brilliance and Bravery L-   Liveliness A-  Ambition C - Courage , Confidence and Creativity K - Knowledge
