Rosa Parks, Mother of the Civil rights movement?
I don't think so.

I think that honor should go to Miss. Jane Pittman.

5. But I'm not even here.
I'm just a stage prop in Jane Pittman's play.

9. But I thought
Jane Asher buried Paul, not Rosa Parks. She belongs in Penny Lane.

10. If this autobiography is fiction, I apologize.
From what I remember I thought it as a factual autobiography.

14. On the news channel I listened to this a.m.
they described Parks as the mother of the MODEREN civil rights movement. She made a big contribution imo and should always be remembered for it. It was the 1950's remember--in the deep South. She could have gotten killed for taking a stand like she did.
