A great response to the great amount of Rosa Parks corpse rape that will be going on soon(the cartoon talked about on black folks is just one of the manifestations) I like how the 'some lady sat on a bus' actually seems to echo the well...white washing of Rosa Parks' role in history. The great leaders of the civil rights era did not have magical powers to wipe out racism- they just gave others the courage to speak up against it and gave lawmakers the courage to outlaw some of the worst practices. Now that we realize that they have fought and died for all of us, we should have the courage ourselves to stand up, because that is their legacy to us. They gave others courage and hope, and so we don't have to wait for a leader to give us that, we can see their actions, and have courage in ourselves, and have hope for the future.
