Gwendolyn Brooks encouraged us all to stand up for ourselves and be dignified and active. I wanted the Cultural Center for Black Students to be named after Gwendolyn Brooks. I succeeded in that. That was in 1970. Rudy Womack was instrumental to the Cultural Center's opening up to all on-campus and the community. Ms. Brooks would make an annual visit to Western Illinois University.
