ya rosa parks wasn't a victim she planned that bus event with other civil rights groups....it wasn't a random act of defiance....it was premeditated for an effect. Civil rights changes needed to happen....I just hate being lied to about the truth of an event....and being made to believe a narrative.

Like conservatives whining about being de-platformed from social media, Rosa Parks should have just stopped whining about having to ride in the back of the bus, and started her own bus company. (if we're gonna go by 'woke' democrat standards LOL)
