Bayard Rustin may likely not ring a bell. If not, that's ok. We didn't know until later years also.Bayard Rustin was the mastermind behind may of the civil rights activists and their non-violent approach to protests in the fight for justice. As a gay black man, raised in Pennsylvania by Quaker grandparents, the philosophy of non-violence permeated Rustin's personal and professional life - despite the injustices he often faced.
