Rosa parks - Great name in the civil rights movement.

Rosa Parks dies today. Sad that time seems to be moving so fast. And allthough changes are happening, they just seem to be happening ever so slowly.
I bet most people didn't even realize that she was still alive all these years. I mean the people who heard about the lady on the bus and not giving up her seat. They don't think beyond that. They hear her name and most likely think it was so long ago she must have been past, maybe even before some of you all were born.
But none the less, for those of you who don't know that she was still in the movement for all the right reasons try checking out this link.
It gives and indepth yet to the point saga of her life.
Maybe you will also learn that her feet didn't hurt and that was not the reason she did not give up her seat on that bus that day. But just that she believed things needed to change.
