"I was immediately drawn to the poem, "Recipe for a Civil Rights Leader". It was powerful and full of inspiration, strength, energy, ambition, and uncompromising truth. The poem challenged me to step up to the plate and illustrate it with equal directness. I wanted to interpret the poem in a way that would leave it unadulterated, that is to say, with simplicity, clarity, straightforwardness, and power. The poem made me cry when I first read it. It still makes me cry. I want there to be many more civil rights leaders like these students. I look forward to hearing their voices."
