Voice of the Day: Rosa Parks

This movement was not just about desegregating the buses, or even just the mistreatment of our people in Montgomery. This movement was about slaking the centuries old thirst of a long-suffering people for freedom, dignity, and human rights. It was time to drink at the well.

- Rosa Parks
from A Call to Conscience, edited by Clayborne Carson and Kris Shepard
