Arrest Me For Sitting On A Bus?

It Takes More Than One Person To Bring About Peace - It Takes All Of Us.

People Always Say That I Didn’t Give Up My Seat Because I Was Tired, But That Isn’t True. No, The Only Tired I Was, Was Tired Of Giving In.

When I See The Leadership Roles Black Women Are Taking Today I Am Very Encouraged.

I Did Not Want To Be Mistreated, I Did Not Want To Be Deprived Of A Seat That I Had Paid For. It Was Just Time… There Was Opportunity For Me To Take A Stand To Express The Way I Felt About Being Treated In That Manner. I Had Not Planned To Get Arrested. I Had Plenty To Do Without Having To End Up In Jail. But When I Had To Face That Decision, I Didn't Hesitate To Do So Because I Felt That We Had Endured That Too Long. The More We Gave In, The More We Complied With That Kind Of Treatment, The More Oppressive It Became.

All I Was Trying To Do Was Get Home From Work.
