"I am leaving this legacy to all of you ... to bring peace, justice, equality, love and a fulfillment of what our lives should be."

RIP, Rosa Parks.

May we all have the strength and courage to stand for what truth and justice, just as she did.

She will be missed, but never forgotten.

Notwithstanding the efforts of M L King and other purported black leaders, Rosa Parks’ simple act of civil disobedience (refusing to give up her bus seat for a white man) was the tipping point in the advancement of civil rights in America. She should inspire us all to appreciate how personal courage can lead to extraordinary public legacies.

God bless you Ms Parks!
