Rest in Power Rev. Robert Graetz, lifelong civil rights activist, the only White clergyman in Montgomery who had the moral courage to support the Bus Boycott, whose own house was bombed by terrorists the current President would likely call “fine people”

Rev. Robert Graetz, whose support of the 1955-56 Montgomery Bus Boycott made him a target of segregationists and sparked a career dedicated to social justice, died Sunday. He was 92.

Thread👇Rev Robert Graetz has passed. He supported the Montgomery Bus Boycott despite violence and harassment towards his family. I didn’t know this. Thank you @lyman_brian for putting this out there for us. https://t.co/ATFOMb2KHS
