Rosa Parks, 1913-2005

Rest in Piece, in a place where the bastards can't tell you how to live your life. Because that's what made you special in my mind: you believed you "had endured that kind of treatment for too long."

And even though the ultimate legal outcome of the struggle she participated in imposed laws that attempted to tell others how to live their lives, I can't fault her for the courage it took to tell that person, the prevailing attitude, and The Law "no" and mean it. Such people are in short supply.
