102. That's not what you said, though. You said that the Civil Rights Movement

came about because of bigots in the 1960s who changed their minds and then pushed through the changes. You said that Martin Luther King, Jr. and Rosa Park and the other activists didn't do it. You said that bigots who changed their minds did it.

I asked you to name one. Name one bigot who was opposed to black civil rights and then had an awakening in the 1960s and then became responsible for pushing through the Civil Rights Movement.

You made the statement. I'm asking you to give one example.
