“Traveling throughout the state, Rosa Parks sought to document instances of white-on-Black brutality in hopes of pursuing legal justice. ‘Rosa will talk with you’ became the understanding throughout Alabama’s Black communities.”
- @JeanneTheoharis
“This work was tiring, and at times demoralizing because most of the cases Parks documented went nowhere.“
- @JeanneTheoharis

“But the fourth panelist… Nipsey Russell, who is Black, said he would have to disqualify himself because he marched with Parks in Selma, adding: ‘Miss Rosa Parks is 10-foot tall, she’s a legend and a hero in the democracy of the United States, not just among Black people.’”
“In 1980, three bespectacled African American women appeared on the show, each stating: ‘My name is Rosa Parks.’ Only one of the three voting panelists correctly identified her – today their musings look demeaning and trivial.”
