Paisha Thomas and Bill Cohen will sing the songs that non-violent civil rights demonstrators sang to embolden themselves in the early 1960’s, when blacks and whites marched together, were beaten together, and were sometimes killed together as they campaigned for simple human rights.

• 1960 lunch counter sit-ins

• 1961 freedom rides
