In this powerful episode of American Potential, host David From sits down with Clarence Henderson, a civil rights leader who took part in the historic 1960 Greensboro Woolworth lunch counter sit-in.

Clarence shares a firsthand account of the moment he joined the protest—an act of courage that helped ignite a nationwide movement to challenge segregation. He reflects on growing up under Jim Crow, the risks he and others faced that day, and how a simple decision to sit down became a turning point in American history.

Now, decades later, Clarence travels the country sharing his story with young people, emphasizing the importance of understanding history, defending freedom, and having the courage to stand up for what’s right.

This episode is a moving reminder that real change often begins with one small step—and that the responsibility to protect liberty belongs to every generation.
