Something that's not said about Rosa Parks....
Claudette Colvin (born September 5, 1939) is a pioneer of the African American Civil Rights Movement. On March 2, 1955, she was the first person arrested for resisting bus segregation in Montgomery, Alabama.
...Rosa Parks was a secretary for the NAACP. the NAACP didn't think Claudette Colvins image was acceptable as she was just an adolescent and pregnant.
For a long time, Montgomery's black leaders did not publicize Colvin's pioneering effort because she was a teenager who was pregnant by a married man; words like "feisty", "mouthy", and "emotional" were used to describe Colvin while her counterpart Parks was seen as calm, well-mannered, and studious. Given the social norms of the time and her youth, the NAACP leaders worried about using her to represent their boycott.[1][2]
Claudette Colvin: "Young people think Rosa Parks just sat down on a bus and ended segregation, but that wasn't the case at all."[1][3]
The NAACP robbed Americans of a True hero that had more grit than Rosa Parks could dream of. This is just one of many points of contention the right has with the left.
Also, Garner was killed because of a big government regulation against selling individual cigarettes. Once that's understood, it's particularly offensive that Bernie Big Government Sanders would exploit the ignorance and naivety of Garners daughter. Then again though, the NAZI party was all about building a utopia no matter the cost.
