Going from being in the car with her Dad driving to vote and seeing him shot, putting out fires from crosses being burned at the end of their driveway, Cleo Scott Brown, got an education and went to work for a big company.  She was the only female, person of color in the executive suite.
When they executives went to a meeting and after went to look at BMW cars, Cleo, who was in the market for a car for her son, realized that she couldn't buy him one because as a young black male he would be at risk of being stopped.
Putting all of this together Cleo wrote some powerful books to wake people up and started History Matters Institute and now travels all over the country helping people understand what really went on and is still going on for the African-American community.  
An important episode to watch.
