The end of an icon -- Rosa Parks.

The end of an icon -- Rosa Parks.

I thought it was appropriate to make people aware of this. Rosa Parks has recently passed according to news sources. You can read CNN's story of it here.

For those who are unaware of who Rosa Parks was, she was made famous during the civil rights era in the United States. I would encourage you all to read up about her, and take into all of our lives the kind of values and actions she, and other emphasized.

I don't think the world can ever truly appreciate the value of great people, but we can recognize their worth. I am appreciative of all that she, and the men and women who suffered, and those who still suffer, to promote equality and unity.

Thanks for posting. I would've missed the news.

A good time to remember that freedom does not come easy.

Excellent to see this item posted here, albeit not DB-related. Rosa Parks was a true American hero, whose dignity and bravery forced genuine meaning into the words "and justice for all." People of all ethnicity are indebted to her.
