Silly Thinking

The woman who came to symbolize the civl rights movement in the United States is dead at age 93.

In December 1955 in Alabama an African American woman was taking a bus ride and would not give up her seat to a white man, that simple act of civil disobediance sparked a young Reverend Martin Luther King to organize a bus boycott until the bus company changed it's policy of making black people ride in the back of public transportation. The boycott lasted until November, 1956 and these two actions started a movement for equality that we are still in the midst of to this very day.
That couragous woman was Rosa Parks and she changed the United States of America.
Rosa Parks was still speaking out on injustice to her dying day.
An average American citizen of little education and no special skills changed the lives of millions in countless ways. Rosa Parks made a difference with dignity, humanity, and a sense of equality. Few Americans in the latter part of the 20th century, right up to present day can make that claim.
Rosa Parks, a true American hero, dead at 93.
