"There's a lot of horsepower in that group," he says, "and they're getting things done." Zona Moore, who as a teenager joined the Freedom Riders' bus, runs the Moree AES. She's often out speaking to young people. "There's enormous wealth in this town," says Moore, who grew up in Moree's mission. "I ask young people, Don't you want a part of it?
