While I agree with your statement, I must also add: That this very country was founded upon principles of civil disobedience and sometimes uncivil. The Boston Tea Party, refusal to house British soldiers by colonists, are prime examples of civil disobedience. That however does not diminsh the fact that the end result provided a necessary change. So yes in fact there were hidden motives behind her not giving up her seat but, it was necessary to force the prevailing attitude in that city and others of African American inferiority to be changed. But it is a sad day indeed. While I did not support her suit of Outkast, I still respected her having the courage to fight for a cause that was worthy of fighting for. So to Mrs. Rosa Parks: May she rest in peace.ben72227 said:
Who cares? Go up to any african american and say that. No offense but that does sound a bit racist, you seem toi be oblivious to african american history in the south, the horrible things that corrupt sheriffs did to these men and women when they wouldn't go to the "right section". I think you better wise-up sir, it could've been you, but since it wasn't, you don't seem to care.
