Sunny and Colleagues,
    Here are several pieces about Myles Horton, beginning here with a 
paragraph from the Acknowledgements page of my   third book, You, Yes YOU, Can 
Teach Someone to Read.   The 3 others I will attach, some brief, one a lengthy 
strategic plan for those who are interested. 
Grace, Peace, and Love,    
Lucille Tessier Chagnon   

I WAS ON RECEPTIONIST DUTY AT ICA HEADQUARTERS IN CHICAGO IN 1977 WHEN AN 
ELDERLY STRANGER WITH A KNAPSACK INTRODUCED HIMSELF AS MYLES HORTON.   [fresh 
from an interview with Studs Terkel] I KNEW NOTHING OF MYLES AND ZILPHIA 
HORTON'S HIGHLANDER FOLK SCHOOL NOR OF THE ROLE THAT MYLES HAD PLAYED IN THE 
LIFE OF SEPTIMA CLARK AND THE CITIZENSHIP SCHOOLS IN THE DEEP SOUTH AND IN 
THE LIVES OF THE LEADERS OF THE CIVIL RIGHTS MOVEMENT.  HORTON AND CLARK HAVE 
HAD A DEEP IMPACT ON MY VISION OF THE UNTAPPED POWER AND POSSIBILITY OF 
GRASSROOTS LITERACY AND ACTION
