who Bree Newsome is and why she is a hero. Bet she enjoyed educating folks on the who and why and what does make a hero.

I truly hope Newsome's act never fades in this country of short memories and at least a few like Madison above can keep Newsome's idealism alive.

The Welch family should be proud.
