Rosa Parks Dead

A sad day.
Rosa Parks, a seamstress from Montgomery, Alabama, who would not give up her bus seat to a white man in 1955, died Monday at the age of 92. Historians mark the date of her quiet-but-revolutionary act as the start of the modern civil rights movement in the United States.
She just sat there and started it all. Thank God for that woman. Hopefully we will never forget how important she was and always will be to the rights that all of us have.
