Singling Parks out for recognition seems over the top to me.

Well, and so it is. Symbolism. A very sweet lady, bless her heart.

I would agree with that. I will say that I'm amazed the left didn't have her embalmed and put on display.

Well that's a good post D.O.

I admire the spirit of people who stood up for what was rightfully theirs, according to the foundation of our country.

That's something to be proud of and something that should bind us together.

Many people fought for those rights during those times and died, both White and Black, and I admire their courage.

Thanks. I appreciate your comments and agree. Take care.
