I remember that line. The movie also provided a mild ‘shock’ to some folks when one of the Barbers exclaimed;
“Rosa Parks didn’t do S**T!! All she did was sit her black
*** down and not get up!!”.

Many black folks continue to near worship the late Rosa Parks, as though she was some kind of revolutionary Civil Rights figure. Her fame was ‘bestowed’ upon her by the public. Sort of like Bob Dylan’s fame was ‘bestowed’ upon him. Both were in the right place at the right time.
