Question: Who were Freedom Riders from Freedom Highways campaign?
Context: Freedom Highways campaign, or Freedom Highways project, was a 1962 project by Congress of Racial Equality (CORE) to seek racial desegregation of hotels and restaurants located in U.S. states along the southeastern seaboard.  After the Freedom Rides campaign during 1961 to integrate interstate and intrastate travel and terminals in the southern United States, the organization sought to apply the same tactic of nonviolence and direct action towards hotels and restaurants from Maryland down to Florida. Dovey Johnson Roundtree (born April 17, 1914) is an African-American civil rights activist, ordained minister, and attorney.  Her 1955 victory before the Interstate Commerce Commission in the first bus desegregation case to be brought before the ICC resulted in the only explicit repudiation of the "separate but equal" doctrine in the field of interstate bus transportation by a court or federal administrative body.  That case, "Sarah Keys v. Carolina Coach Company" (64 MCC 769 (1955)), which Dovey Roundtree argued with her law partner and mentor Julius Winfield Robertson, was invoked by Attorney General Robert F. Kennedy during the 1961 Freedom Riders' campaign in his successful battle to compel the Interstate Commerce Commission to enforce its rulings and end Jim Crow in public transportation. May Stevens (born June 9, 1924) is an American feminist artist, political activist, educator, and writer.  Major works include: "Freedom Riders" (1963), "Big Daddy" series (1968–1976), "Ordinary/Extraordinary" (1976), and "SoHo Women Artists" (1978).  In 1977, she was one of the featured artists discussed in a seminar given by Jacqueline Moss at the Aldrich Contemporary Art Museum.  The seminar was titled "The Women's Movement: Iconography, Esthetics". Breach of Peace: Portraits of the 1961 Mississippi Freedom Riders is a 2008 book by Eric Etheridge.  The book features the life stories of over 80 of the Freedom Riders who fought to desegregate interstate bus transportation in the Deep South, and includes both their original mug shots and contemporary photographic portraits taken 45 or more years later by Etheridge.  The mug shots had been stored for decades by the Mississippi State Sovereignty Commission, a state "government agency formed in 1956 to oppose the Civil Rights Movement and the federal government".  The preface was written by Roger Wilkins and the foreword by Diane McWhorter. Freedom Riders is a 2010 American historical documentary film, produced by Firelight Media for PBS American Experience.

Directed by Stanley Nelson, it marked the 50th anniversary of the first Freedom Ride in May 1961 and first aired on May 16, 2011. Joan Pleune was one of the original Freedom Riders during the Civil Rights Movement in 1961.  She was arrested for participating in the bus trip against segregation from New Orleans, Louisiana to Jackson, Mississippi.

The Freedom Riders National Monument is a United States National Monument in Anniston, Alabama established by President Barack Obama in January 2017 to preserve and commemorate the Freedom Riders during the Civil Rights Movement.

Freedom Riders were civil rights activists who rode interstate buses into the segregated southern United States, in 1961 and subsequent years, in order to challenge the non-enforcement of the United States Supreme Court decisions "Morgan v. Virginia" (1946) and "Boynton v. Virginia" (1960), which ruled that segregated public buses were unconstitutional.  The Southern states had ignored the rulings and the federal government did nothing to enforce them.  The first Freedom Ride left Washington, D.C., on May 4, 1961, and was scheduled to arrive in New Orleans on May 17. Margaret Winonah Beamer Myers (born September 10, 1941) is an American political activist, who, in 1961 at the age of 19, became a Freedom Rider.  Freedom Riders were civil rights activists who rode interstate buses into the segregated southern United States in 1961 and following years to challenge the non-enforcement of the United States Supreme Court decisions "Irene Morgan v. Commonwealth of Virginia" (1946) and "Boynton v. Virginia" (1960).  She was arrested in Jackson, Mississippi and spent almost six months in Mississippi State Penitentiary, better known as Parchman Farm, the oldest prison and the only maximum-security prison for men in the state of Mississippi.  Of all the Freedom Riders, white or black, Winonah Beamer served the longest sentence and was the only Freedom Rider who served her full term.
