Boston University Alumni Association Howard Thurman Center I am one of Ms Kennedy's 32,000 children. She embodied Dr Thurman's "quiet courage that comes from an inward spring of confidence"... the "underground river" that keeps alive a thousand little springs of action. Forever greatful for her teachings as a Dr MLK Jr Scholar.
