RANDY!
 
I emailed you something about St. Clair Bourne. Did you get it? I figured it would be something you'd like.

Responded privately, sort of surprised you didn't open the complete can of worms here, I think others might be interested.

okay, okay, lol....

I discovered that St. Clair Bourne, a prolific African American documentarian who died last year, was an initiate of my home chapter of Alpha Phi Omega. He and 14 other Georgetown students were arrested when they staged a sit-in at a diner in Virginia when the owner refused to serve him. He left Georgetown, became one of the earliest members of the peace corps, finished college at Syracuse, and then began a long career as a film maker.

It was sort of bittersweet to find out that someone so successful was my chapter brother and is now deceased. :(
