I remember learning about her in school. I think I remembering thinking about this stuff having happend way in the past... I dont even know if I knew she was still alive at that time. Even when I would here about her recently it would still make me think and relize that it wasn't that long ago when she boarded that bus...even less so when i wa in school.

makes you realize that we still have a long way to go in terms of racial and civil rights. It really wasn't that long ago, it just seems that way for us since fortunately we've only ever known a world when on paper it's wrong to discriminate and havent' for the most part had to suffer the injustices that many of my not so distant relatives had to face.
