He attended Carrie Dotson High School where he played football, and then entered Alcorn State University, formerly Alcorn College on a full athletic scholarship. Robert came back to Grenada to join the Civil Rights Movement, where he helped to establish voting rights in Mississippi. He joined the Southern Christian Leadership Conference (SCLC) as a Field Project Director. His fights for civil rights with the SCLC lead him to various travels throughout the United States and Africa. Robert was jailed in 1971, after refusing to be drafted into the military, he was released after 18 months after receiving a pardon from President Gerald Ford. He continued his work with the SCLC, which led him to meet the love of his life, Mary Pitts in Covington, Georgia. They were married in November of 1974, they were blessed with 2 sons, Cleon and Marcus. Robert began working for MARTA, Metro Atlanta Transit Authority in 1979 as a bus operator, while owning his own home construction and repair business. In December 2002, Robert was ordained as a Deacon of Mt. Ephraim Baptist Church. He leaves to cherish his memory, wife, Mary Johnson, his children, Cleon and Marcus, a special son, Germaine Satterwhite, granddaughters, Cristal, Alisha, and Christina. Siblings, James and Lewis Johnson.
