“Thank you so much, council members. So many of us have been touched by Liberty Hill, and as I look at the faces up there, I look at the folks who helped really raise me and so many others as an organizer and as an activist. I'm not going to start naming names because I'll miss somebody, but all of you know and can remember back, remember when, My hair went all the way over my head and the chip on my shoulder was a lot bigger than it is now. And you all helped guide us through to the point where Liberty Hill is not an outside organization throwing rocks at the building. It is really part of…”
