Biographical Bytes from Bala: Laurel Hill West Stories #012

Cynthia DeLores Tucker was a Philadelphia born and raised champion of Civil Rights in the 1960s and 1970s and worked closely with such icons as Martin Luther King Jr., Rosa Parks, Shirley Chisholm, and Cecil B. Moore.  She chose to spend the last years of her life fighting what she saw as the pornography of gangsta rap.  She was vilified by the music community, which spared no words in trying to show how sad and out-of-date her thinking was.  She now lies in an unmarked grave at Laurel Hill West in Bala Cynwyd.
