description: Clipping from page 2 of the February 9, 2016 edition of The Oracle student newspaper. The clipping reads: "Marian Edelman / EDELMAN - Center Stage hosted Marian Wright Edelman Feb. 4 at 7 p.m. in the Derryberry Hall Auditorium. Edelman founded and still works for the Children's Defense Fund. Their mission is to 'Leave No Child Behind and to ensure every child a Healthy Start, a Head Start, a Fair Start, a Safe Start, and a Moral Start to life.' Edelman discussed many issues from what she calls the 'cradle to prison pipeline,' to the issue that currently plagues our nation: guns. Edelman ended with an encouraging message to the audience. 'Even the biggest dog can be moved by small strategic bites. Together we can make their uncomfortable to be moved.'"
