MY CONSTITUENTS AND COMMUNITY
ACTIVISTS LAUREN BUSAN FROM THE
FIFTY FIRST AND I CONNECTED WHEN
WE MET AT OUR DISTRICTS COFFEE
MEETING IN ECHO PARK LAST
OCTOBER.
SHE HAS MADE IT HER MISSION. TO
RECOGNIZE BEAR RESIDENTS LEGACY
THROUGH A U. S. POSTAGE STAMP
CAMPAIGN.
BEAR RESIDENTS NAME IS LARGELY
VACANT FROM OUR HISTORY BOOKS.
BUT HE MERITS PROPER RECOGNITION.
HE WAS AN UNSUNG HERO OF THE
CIVIL RIGHTS MOVEMENT WHO FOUGHT
FOR RACIAL JUSTICE.
AN LGBT Q. VISIBILITY.
IN ATIME.
WHICH THAT WAS NOT VERY POPULAR.
BORN IN NINETEEN TWELVE HE WAS A
LIFELONG BELIEVER IN CIVIL
DISOBEDIENCE.
AND THE TEACHINGS OF MOHAMMED
GANDHI.
WHICH LATER BECAME A FIXTURE OF
THE CIVIL RIGHTS MOVEMENT.
DURING THE NINETEEN FIFTIES HE
BECAME A CLOSE ADVISER AND
FRIEND. TO DOCTOR MARTIN LUTHER
KING JUNIOR INTRODUCING DR KING.
TO GANDHI'S TEACHINGS.
RUSTIN THEN BECAME THE CHIEF
ORGANIZER OF THE MARCH ON
WASHINGTON IN.
NINETEEN SIXTY THREE AND HE WAS
PARTICULARLY FOCUSED ON THE JOB
TO FREEDOM PIPELINE.
RUSTIN READ THE TEN GOALS ON THE
STEPS OF THE LINCOLN MEMORIAL IN
FRONT OF TWO HUNDRED AND FIFTY
THOUSAND PEOPLE.
AT THE MARCH.
THESE GOALS INCLUDING.
INCLUDED THE SEGREGATING ALL
SCHOOLS.
BANNING HOUSING DISCRIMINATION.
AN INCREASING THE MINIMUM WAGE
ALL ISSUES WHICH CONTINUE TO BE
PREVAIL AND TO THIS GOVERNING
BODY.
BEAR RUSTIN WAS AHEAD OF HIS
TIME BY CHAMPIONING LABOR EQUITY
AN ISSUE THAT CONTINUES TO BE
PRESENT IN OUR SOCIETY.
AND AN ISSUE THAT I AND MANY
MANY OF US WILL CONTINUE TO WORK
ON ON THIS LEGISLATIVE CYCLE.
THE FIGHT FOR JUSTICE MUST
CONTINUE IF WE ARE TO TRULY
HONOR THOSE WHO CAME BEFORE US.
AUSTIN IS A FIGURE WHO REMAIN
WHO RESEMBLES MANY PEOPLE FROM
MY DISTRICT IN ACROSS THE STATE
WHO FACE COMPOUNDING
DISCRIMINATION DUE TO THEIR RACE.
AND SEXUAL ORIENTATION.
IT IS FITTING.
THAT DURING BLACK HISTORY MONTH
THE LEGISLATURE.
SHOULD RECOGNIZE HIS TREMENDOUS
CONTRIBUTIONS TO OUR STATE.
I RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR AN AYE
VOTE AND THE FIRST CALL BE OPEN
FOR ROLL CALL.
THANK YOU MISS CREE OF DOCTOR
WEBER YOU ARE RECOGNIZED.
THANK YOU MISTER SPEAKER AND
MEMBERS.
AYE TO RISE A DAY IN SUPPORT OF
A C. R. TWENTY SEVEN AND THANK
MY COLLEAGUE FROM LOS ANGELES
FOR BRINGING THIS RESOLUTION
FORWARD.
THE CALIFORNIA LEGISLATIVE BLACK
CAUCUS IS PROUD PROUD TO
ACKNOWLEDGE AND RECOGNIZE BAY
RUSTIN.
AS A TRUE CIVIL RIGHTS HERO AND
A FIGHTER FOR JUSTICE.
YOU PROBABLY CAN READ ABOUT THE
BY -- OF OF
OF RUSTIN IN TERMS OF HIS
EDUCATION HIS FAMILY WAS WELL
KNOWN HE BASICALLY ATTENDED
WILBERFORCE UNIVERSITY AS WELL
AS CHENEY STATE UNIVERSITY TO
BLACK COLLEGES.
WAS VERY SHARP VERY SMART.
YOU SHOULD REMEMBER HIM AS A MAN
WHO TRULY BELIEVE IN THE
PRINCIPLES THAT WE OFTEN TALK
ABOUT.
YOU KNOW PEOPLE TALK ABOUT CIVIL
RIGHTS.
THE TALK ABOUT EQUAL OPPORTUNITY
IN ACCESS.
BAYARD RUSTIN PUT HIMSELF ALWAYS
ON THE LINE FOR JUSTICE AND
EQUALITY.
EVEN AS A STUDENT WILBERFORCE.
HE BASICALLY WAS KICKED OUT OF
WILBERFORCE UNIVERSITY BECAUSE
HE ORGANIZED A PROTEST AND A
STRIKE AT THIS COLLEGE.
HE TALKED ABOUT JUSTICE AND
EQUALITY EVERYWHERE HE WENT.
HE ACTUALLY SPENT TWO YEARS IN
PRISON BECAUSE HE WAS A
CONSCIENTIOUS OBJECTOR TO WORLD
WAR.
TWO HE WAS A MAN WHO WAS A
PACIFIST WHO BELIEVE IN THE
PRINCIPLES OF GANDHI NOT JUST IN
SOME ABSTRACT SENSE WITHIN A
REAL PRACTICAL SINCE.
HE BELIEVED IN EQUALITY OF
EVERYONE.
HE WAS A GAY AFRICAN AMERICAN IN
THIS COUNTRY.
AND WHICH MAKES IT DIFFICULT FOR
HIM TO FUNCTION NOT ONLY IN THE
LARGER SOCIETY BUT EVEN WITHIN
THE AFRICAN AMERICAN COMMUNITY
IN THE NINETEEN THIRTIES AND
FORTIES IN WHICH SHE LIVED.
YET DESPITE THAT HE BECAME A
BELOVED FRIEND.
OF THURGOOD MARSHALL AND SO MANY
OTHER CIVIL RIGHTS LEADERS.
BECAUSE THEY RECOGNIZE THAT HE
WAS TRULY AN EXAMPLE OF WHAT IT
IS TO BE A PERSON TOTALLY
COMMITTED TOOK EQUALITY AND
JUSTICE FOR EVERYONE.
IT IS UNFORTUNATE BAYARD RUSTIN
OFTEN WAS IN THE BACKGROUND OF
MOVEMENTS WHETHER IT WAS THE
MARCH ON WASHINGTON OR VARIOUS
OTHER KINDS OF PROTEST.
HE'S STILL AT BUT AT THE SAME
TIME HE WASN'T AFRAID TO TELL
YOU WHO HE WAS.
BUT HE RECOGNIZE IT PROBABLY HIS
PRESENCE IN A VERY VISIBLE SENSE
WOULD HAVE HAD AN ADVERSE EFFECT
ON THE MARCH HAD AN ADVERSE
EFFECT ON THE MOVEMENT.
AND SO HE VOLUNTARILY STEPPED
THIS TO TAKE THE FRONT SEAT
WHILE HE WORKED BEHIND THE
SCENES.
HE IS TRULY A HERO IN EVERY
SENSE OF THE WORD HAVING
SACRIFICE AND SUFFERED THROUGH
MANY OF THE PROTEST THAT EXISTED
IN THIS COUNTRY.
HE DIED IN.
NINETEEN EIGHTY SEVEN AS A
PERSON WHO AT THE AGE OF SEVENTY
FIVE AND THE NEW YORK TIMES
TALKED ABOUT LOOKING BACK AT A
BAD RUSTIN AS A QUAKER.
AND THEY SAID THE PRINCIPAL
FACTORS WHICH INFLUENCE HIS LIFE
WAS NONVIOLENT TACTICS
CONSTITUTIONAL MEANS DEMOCRATIC
PROCEDURES RESPECT FOR HUMAN
PERSONALITY AND A BELIEF THAT
ALL PEOPLE ARE.
ONE WE HAVE VERY FEW PEOPLE WHO
HAVE MADE THE KIND OF SACRIFICE
THAT BARED RUSTIN DID WITHOUT
DEMANDING ATTENTION WITHOUT
DEMANDING THAT THINGS HAD TO BE
A REFLECTION OF HIM.
BUT OPENING THE OPPORTUNITY FOR
ALL.
ON BEHALF OF THE CALIFORNIA
LEGISLATIVE BLACK CAUCUS WE
BRACES RESOLUTION WE ALSO ASKED
THAT WE ALSO LOOK VERY CAREFULLY
AT THE THE MOVEMENT THAT IS
BEING DESIGNED TO GET A STAMP IN
HIS HONOR.
THAT IT WILL MEAN A LOT FOR ALL
FOR THE MOVEMENT ITSELF AND FOR
THE DIVERSITY OF THIS COUNTRY TO
NOT ONLY TALK ABOUT DIVERSITY IN
TERMS OF RACE.
BUT ALSO IN TERMS OF SEXUALITY.
WE'RE VERY ANA TODAY TO BE A
PART OF THIS I WANT TO THANK MY
COLLEAGUES TO BRING THIS
RESOLUTION FOR IT AND
RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR YOUR
SUPPORT FOR ACR.
TWENTY SEVEN THANK YOU DOCTOR
WEBER DOCTOR EGGMAN YOU ARE

HE'S CALIFORNIA'S ONLY A ELECTED
PUBLIC DEFENDER IN THE NATIVE
SACRAMENTO.
HE REALLY DEVELOPED HIS FIRST
FOR CIVIL RIGHTS PRIMARILY
THROUGH HIS FAMILY BACKGROUND
HIS PARENTS AND HIS GRANDPARENTS
WERE INTERNED.
DURING WORLD WAR TO LIKE SO MANY
OTHER.
JAPANESE AMERICANS.
AND WHILE HE HAS ALWAYS REMEMBER
TOOK THOSE LESSONS IT IS REALLY
ONCE HE GRADUATE FROM LAW SCHOOL.
STARTED WORKING IN THE PUBLIC
DEFENDER'S OFFICE THAT HE WAS
REALLY ABLE. TO CONTINUE THAT
FIGHT FOR SOME AND HE WAS
SOMEONE WHO WAS ALWAYS KNOWN AS
A CHAMPION FOR THE UNDERDOG.
SOMEONE WHO GAVE VOICE TO THE
VOICELESS.
SOMEONE WHO ALWAYS STOOD FOR
WHAT WAS RIGHT NO MATTER WHAT
THE ODDS WERE NO MATTER.
WHAT THE CAUSE WAS NO MATTER THE
PUBLIC RIDICULE TO REALLY ONE OF
THE MOST AMERICAN PRINCIPLES
THAT EVERYBODY HAD A RIGHT?
TO DEFENSE IN THE COURT OF LAW
AND THAT'S REALLY WHAT HE
DEMANDED OF HIMSELF.
SHE TRIED CASES HIMSELF HE
DIDN'T JUST.
BECOME AN ADMINISTRATOR WHEN HE
WAS ELECTED IN.
TWO THOUSAND THREE HE REALLY
DEMANDS THAT ARE DEMANDED THAT
OF EVERY SINGLE ONE OF HIS
ATTORNEYS.
EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THE STAFF IF
YOU HEAR.
JUST THE FEEDBACK FROM HIS
DEPUTY PUBLIC DEFENDERS FROM
PEOPLE WHO WORKED.
WITH HIM.
SHE NEVER ALLOWED IT TO BE AN
EXCUSE THAT.
HIS STAFF WERE PAID TO BE THESE
THESE LAWYERS THAT HE DEMANDED
THE VERY VERY BASS THAT OFFICE --
