On this day in 1960, four black college students staged a sit-in at a whites-only lunch counter at Woolworth's in Greensboro, NC.
They sparked a national movement across the country. Instructions were simple: sit quietly and wait to be served. #BlackHistoryMonth

This is the story of a 26-year-old student who sends a message to his teacher to explain that he will be absent from the course because he has not found anyone to keep his five-month-old daughter.
Nathan Alexander, 34, a math professor at Morehouse College (Atlanta) responds to his student by saying: "If that's the problem, take her to class."
Upon arriving in the classroom, the teacher offered to take the child so that his student could devote himself entirely to the course. The teacher held the child throughout the lesson and even after, when he answered the students questions.
The photo posted on Twitter. Internet users congratulated the teacher who not only teaches math, but also COMPASSION, KINDNESS and GENEROSITY towards others. ❤️
