Life's Work
Derrick Brooks is best well-known as the powerful and fast linebacker that helped the Tampa Bay Buccaneers to win their first Super Bowl in 2002. He has won awards for his play on the field including defensive MVP awards and numerous Pro-Bowl appearances. Yet Brooks is also known off the field for his work in the Tampa Bay community. With his Brooks Bunch, a group of inner-city children who he works with through the Ybor City Boys and Girls club, Brooks is teaching children the value of education as well as showing them the opportunities and wonders that the world has to offer. Brooks and the Brooks Bunch have traveled everywhere from the Grand Canyon to South Africa, and Brooks' focus is always on teaching the children about history and the different cultures that they encounter. Many people wonder how Brooks can show so much energy and commitment on the football field and still give his all to helping people off the field. But as Brooks told the ESPN website, "That's who I am. I come here to do a job and be a winner. When I'm away from here, I think the Lord has put me in a position to help others."

The March on Washington, August 1963

In 1962, dissatisfaction had become prevalent in black communities throughout the U.S. The African American unemployment rate was double the rate of whites and major civil rights reforms had not yet been achieved. Asa Philip Randolph, labor leader and founder of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters, proposed the idea of a march "for jobs and freedom."
This, however, was not the first time that Randolph had this idea. Many years earlier in 1941, Randolph had used the idea for a march on Washington to bring about change for blacks. He had given President Franklin Roosevelt an ultimatum: If Roosevelt failed to adequately address the issue of federal employment discrimination in the defense industry, a demonstration involving 100,000 blacks would ensue. Roosevelt was quick to respond with the creation of the Fair Employment Practice Committee. The march was halted.
