While I am a black woman and in my younger days( a while ago-bus fare was 35 cents then) I was asked more than once to move to the back of the bus by other passengers. Sometimes other passengers would put their personal belongings in the unoccupied seat in order to prevent me from sitting next to them. But none of that worked with me and I am not related to Rosa Parks I don't think.

There was a controversey about another woman doing the same thing but not getting as much credit. It had to do with NAACP political power drama behind the scenes. I just didn't get the logic of Outkast asssociating her name with a song calling someone a nigger. If they were called a nigger by a white person, they'd be insulted and we'd never hear the end of it.
