A notable figure from history is being recognized in bronze. Barbara Rose Johns, who was 16 at the time, led a significant walkout of about 500 students. This event played a role in ending school segregation.

The walkout took place in Virginia and was later included in the Brown vs. Board of Education case. Johns' story is now being told through a bronze representation.
