Rosa Parks Dies

As an Alabamian, I thought it was important to bring this one to you guys.

Great lady. Such a quiet and dignified figure in history. May she rest in peace and her legacy continue...

I find it unbelieveable that such a historic person was still living in this day and age. JUst like when I think of the few Holocaust survivors that are still out there among us. Truly amazing. May she rest in peace...

holocaust survivors are truely amazing people. If you ever get the chance to speak with one, DO.

There isn't much elss one can cay about Rosa Parks that hasn't already been said. She damn near single handedly triggered the civil rights movement that still continues to this day.

The world is a far lesser place without her here.
