Rosa Parks, Revisited – NYTimes.com.
Thank God for this woman and the indomitable spirit that resided inside her body. Charles M. Blow‘s excellent piece in the link above, dispels the misconception that Rosa Parks’ front- seat in Civil Rights history, was earned from being merely overly tired from work. Mrs.Parks, was actually tired, of being tired, concerning racial discrimination. The moment she refused to give up her seat to the shit-kicking, sociopathic, backwoods, brand of bullshit, known as racism-was not by accident. Parks had spent most of her life counteracting attempts by Jimbo, and Jethro, to deem her, her family, and her people as inferior. The spirit of this brave woman resonates throughout every word written by Blow. ~Daryl

I’ve heard some idiots say Black History Month is unnecessary. As long as the civil rights struggle was necessary…..so is Black History Month. Thank you Mr. Daryl.
I’ve heard the same thing, Mr. J.B. These idiots want us to stop talking about Black accomplishments. They better get used to it. We will be talking about this all year long!
