RIP Rosa Parks
"[They say] that my feet were hurting and I didn't know why I refused to stand up when they told me. But the real reason of my not standing up was I felt that I had a right to be treated as any other passenger. We had endured that kind of treatment for too long."
Rosa Parks was not a little old lady when she refused to give up her seat in December 1955. She was a 42-year-old woman who knew what she was doing. The Civil Rights movement was not about feeling sorry for black people; it was about fighting injustice and standing up for what's right.

Let us remember a woman who stood up for what's right by sitting down right where she was.

we should celebrate more moments where people stand (or sit) for the greater good.
sitting as i write in seattle
