Rosa Parks Dies
AND SPEAKING OF rights... there is none other more famous or infamous as her.
She was 42 when she committed an act of defiance in 1955 that was to change the course of American history and earn her the title "mother of the civil rights movement."
When she refused to get up, an entire race of people began to stand up for their rights as human beings.
Rosa Parks died on Monday, of natural causes at the ripe old age of 92
Here is a gentle woman who sparked a revolution. A woman of quiet strength, a true heroine.
Truly, I feel like one light in the world has gone out.
