Black History Month has coincided with the Mavericks’ Reading Challenge presented by Whataburger.
And there may have been no more meaningful message about the power of literacy than what the author of the book “Liberty’s Civil Rights Road Trip” showed an enthusiastic group of kids at Adelle Turner Elementary School on Wednesday.
Michael W. Waters was answering questions from the 6- and 7-year-olds about the book and its meaning along with Mavericks’ legend Rolando Blackman. Then, Waters showed everyone a sign that used to hang in a train station in the ‘60s.
