The Edgar Morrison Story

Alright guys here it is the story you have all been waiting for.

The Legend of Edgar Morrison

In 1949, Kim and Barry Morrison gave birth to a boy named Edgar Morrison. Edgar grew up in a time of heavy racial discrimination in Alabama. By the time he was four years old, he was already taught by his parents to hate Negroes. In 1960, when Edgar was eleven, he started to develop his own views about racial issues which were the opposite of his family.
Edgar was constantly badgered by his older brothers for disagreeing with the views of his family. To escape, he would go and sit on the streets with his friends and play music. Through their music, the band spread their message of peace. Before long, hey had formed a band called “The Morrison Band.”
When he got older, Edgar got a job at the local country store and saved his money for guitars or harmonicas. When he was sixteen, he saved enough money for a car and he bought a VW Bus. He moved out of the house when he was eighteen. He lived and slept in his car. During the next few years, he got involved in some protests for anti-racial discrimination and peace rallies. Being a hippie in the sixties, he had strong feelings about peace and equality. Edgar began to speak at some major protests and it wasn’t long before he spoke at every one that he went to because he was liked by the people so much. People supporting the cause started to consider him a god that was sent down to eliminate discrimination and bring peace. Many of the same people that attended the protests also attended “The Morrison Band” concerts. Edgar and his band played at such places as Woodstock and Madison Square Garden.

As racial discrimination was finally coming to an end, the people claimed that it was Edgar Morrison that ended it and brought equality. People all over the country came to see him in concert and listen to his twenty-three other speeches.
After Edgar’s twenty-third speech, he was walking back to his van to get some rest for the night. Little did he know that a racist named Dan Clooney was waiting for him on a balcony near his van. As Edgar continued back to his van, he was hit in the back by a bullet from Dan Clooney’s gun. When the police came, they found Edgar dead on the ground and the shooter was also dead with a gun in his hand.
Shortly after Edgar’s death, his fans created a memorial for him in his hometown of Alabama. Every year on the anniversary of Edgar’s death, thousands of fans go back to the memorial and sing his songs of peace and equality. To this day, it is believed by many that it was Edgar Morrison that brought people together in peace and equality.
