Re: rosa..............

A quiet and reserved civil rights hero who never sought the limelight..... Amazing how one act of defiance on a bus can begin to change the direction of a country eh?

Re: rosa..............

RIP Rosa Parks. Toledo actually named a highway after here. But she did a lot for humanity and equal rights. She will be missed.

RIP

i was more surprised to hear that she had still been alive than to hear she died. nonetheless what she has done for the civil rights movement is amazing. great lady. God rest her soul

They not only are not continuing her work, but these fuckin race baiters like Jackson, Sharpton, Farakon and almost every rap artist and major record labels for signing these clones are diminishing it. The black community needs a leader who can set aside the bullshit execuses that so many of their people complain about holding them down, and they need to start fixing their problems themselves.
