...cops-and-mouse with security police. No one had forgotten last summer's mass demonstrations (TIME, July 5). From all over Brazil, 739 student leaders descended on a remote farm in the heart of the artichoke country 40 miles southwest of São Paulo.

This is why right temporarily defeated is stronger than evil triumphant...
...freedom ring. From the prodigious hilltops ot New Hampshire, let freedom ring. From the mighty mountains of New York, let freedom ring. From the heightening Alleghenies of Pennsylvania, let freedom ring. But not only that; let freedom ring from Stone Mountain of Georgia. Let freedom ring from every hill and molehill of Mississippi. And when this happens, when we let it ring, we will speed that day when all of God's children, black men and white men, Jews and Gentiles, Protestants and Catholics, will be able to join hands and sing in the words of the old Negro...
