12/01/2005: Fifty Years Ago Today....
This morning, walking from my car to the office, I noticed that the "marquee" on Memphis Area Transit Authority busses (the sign announcing what route that bus follows) were flashing "THANKS, ROSA" in addition to the bus route information.
Today is the 50th anniversary of Rosa Parks saying, "I don't think I should have to stand up" to a bus driver, and thereby changing the course of race relations in the United States.
