My Father Was A Physicist And Also An Activist. My First Public Protest Was With My Dad At Stanford. I Came By All That Honestly.

When I Was 16, The Guest Speaker Was King. And I Was Completely Overwhelmed Because I Had Been Studying Nonviolence, Talking About It, Reading About It, But Here It Was Happening, Here It Was People Boycotting The Buses And People On The Streets And Taking Risks, Which I Think Was The Key.

There's Very Little I Can Sing Now. When I Asked My First Voice Teacher, Who Was The Best One, "when Will I Know When To Stop Singing?" He Said, "your Voice Will Tell You." And It Is Very, Very Difficult To Sing Now.

I Went To Jail For 11 Days For Disturbing The Peace; I Was Trying To Disturb The War.
