The Tallahassee symphony orchestra and the FAMU Concert Choir will hold a performance this weekend to commemorate the historic Tallahassee Bus Boycott of 1956. It’s called “Walk in Dignity” It’s based on the book “The Pain and the Promise” by Tallahassee’s own Glenda Alice Rabby. Derek Steele’s father, Reverend CK Steele, headed up the Tallahassee Bus Boycotts of 1956 after two FAMU students refused to give up their bus seats in May.
