In 1996, a black teenager protected a white man from an angry mob who thought he supported the racist Ku Klux Klan. It was an act of extraordinary courage and kindness - and is still inspiring people today.
Keshia Thomas was 18 when the Ku Klux Klan, the white supremacist organisation, held a rally in her home town in Michigan.
Liberal, progressive and multicultural, Ann Arbor was an unusual place for the KKK to choose, and hundreds of people gathered to show them they were not welcome.

This be Gaia in all her small
usnthem
yo dog!
what's crackin'
is that what they say?
hats backwards
pants saggin'
get outa my way
you think you've made it
in your suv
i think your confusion
is what you don't see
daycare, tv
dinner on the fly
drugs and guns in suburbia
and you ask why?
stop and look
into the eyes
of a child that's lost
ask yourself
just how much
your lifestyle cost.
In Love and Light, Teosinte.
