No, I think you make a great point. You should write a letter to the NAACP about it. |

| Johnny Couth | Well, it was more then just two people. In any case, she didn't do anything original, but that doesn't mean she wasn't doing the right thing. | |

| KevinTheOmnivore | And the other girl who they tried to build a case around, forgot her name, got like pregnant at 14, and didn't make a very good champion on the issue. | |

| Johnny Couth | She wasn't the first person to refuse to move to the back seat, she was just the most famous cause of the people that she knew. I'd be mad about it if she wasn't so humble. But because she was Humble, she kicks ass. | |

| Cosmo Electrolux | I wonder became of the guy who wanted Rosa's seat on the bus...and the bus driver? I'd like to hear their stories....they were also instrumental in sparking the civil rights movement.....although I doubt that they want to be remembered for that..... | |

"I was the mayor that Rosa Parks died under! Vote for me." Sounds like a smart campaign move. |

| KevinTheOmnivore | The current mayor will undoubtedly jump all over it. | |

You know what really sad is that the Detroit mayoral race is fast approaching the election in November, and I would be willing to bet (as both candidates are black) that both were candidates were salivating over the serendipity of this fine woman dying at this time. P.S. She has been a resident of Detroit for several years. |

Hey, black people are entitled to the same death humor that whities get. That's progressive thinking right there. Now, she's right up there with the likes of Dale Earnhardt. Except that she never slammed into a wall going well over 100 mph. Unless that wall in question is the wall of racial prejudice, and the speeding stock car is one woman's hope to lead a rich, productive life. Edit: Also, the windshield could be the glass ceiling. And the rollbar could be the support of the black community. And the flame-retardant suit could be the strength of the human spirit. |

| Dr. Boogie | Plus, she's underground now. | |
| Oct 27th, 2005 08:37 PM | ||
| Royal Tenenbaum | Not really. Unless you connect the history of the entire Black movement. | |

| Ant10708 | Rosa Parks had nothing to do with the underground railroad anyways. | |

| Royal Tenenbaum | We had a underground railroad while your country was still forcing black people to wear diapers. Oh America... | |

He messed up her last name. You can say that's no big deal, and if it were just about anybody else, I'd agree. But this guy PAYS very smart people to write his speeches!! You can screw up the last name of some foreign diplomat from a former Soviet Bloc nations. You absolutely CANNOT screw up the last name of one of the most important and symbolic figures of the American 20th Century. |

| Dr. Boogie | I heard he called her "that uppity negro," but I may need to check my source on that. The AP ain't what it used to be. | |
