Rosa Parks

[Cool Dude]

If there was any person's life that was defined by courage, dignity and class, it was this great lady. God bless her and may she rest in peace.

Civil rights pioneer Rosa Parks has died, Local 4 has learned.

Parks, 92, reportedly died around 7 p.m. Monday at St. John Hospital on Detroit's east side.

Parks' refusal to give up her bus seat to a white man in Montgomery, Ala., in 1955 landed her in jail and sparked a bus boycott that is considered the start of the modern civil rights movement. The bus is on display at the Henry Ford Museum, Dearborn.

Parks, was born Feb. 4, 1913, in Tuskegee, Ala. She lived in Detroit.

Rosa brought to light a problem we only grumbled about. May she at last find peace and her family only know a lifetime of choice and EQUALITY. Where no man is better qualified based on race.
