Very important part of history. I will always remember the day I was with my best friend, also a white man, touring the Ford museum and I was so surprised and grateful to see the actual bus Rosa Parks rode. I went on the bus to check it out, while my best friend waited outside. When I asked him why he was not interested in the exhibition, he gave me a politically correct response, but I knew from that point forward that he was racist. It is such moments that we must be aware - when actions speak louder than words. Rosa Parks taught us exactly that.. Actions do speak louder than words. 💕

Is the bus still at the Ford museum, I remember going there as a kid with my family and it felt so cool to be able to go in the bus where Rosa Parks stood her ground

I was there yesterday with my wife, we were very impressed by the serenity of the place despite the unique story of resistance for human justice with all its roaring moments that it revives on each person who visit the site. I ll come back !

[@stanbeal1820]

Look up Claudette Colvin and you will be surprise to fine out that Rosa Parks didn't start the movement.

That was a very thoughtful and well thought out video though i think that Claudette Colvin should have been mentioned for doing the exact same thing.

Thank you Rosa Parks RIP

[@mzk123ify]

I hope there is a place for Claudette Colvin who did the same thing 9 months before Rosa Parks.....but she was not an adult, she was a 15 year old girl who said she felt the hands of those like Harriet Tubman pushing her shoulders to not get up. She was dragged from the bus in hand cuffs and arrested.

[@vanessajones7087]

mzk123ify They want recognize her,because she isn't close to white,n the big wheels didn't support her.But the truth will prevail.

Thank you🙏 Troy University

[@ironcarvel]

That episode in history was one of the most remarkable; I shed tears just to think about the treatment "Negros" were given then. I salute Rosa Parks and Rev. Martin Luther King as two of the most important people in history of mankind. Rev. MLK will never be forgotten and neither will his words of peace and UNITY. Where is he now when we need him so much?

[@watchinglion7774]

I would love to go to the museum someday. I love the quotes of Martin Luther king

[@johnwesley5119]

Thanks to all. Thanks to Mrs. Rosa Parks. And, thanks to Ms. Claudette Colvin. Thanks also to Mrs. Aurelia Browder, and Ms. Mary Louise Smith, who were also arrested that year. Aurelia, Mary, Claudette, and Susie McDonald went on to challenge segregation (and disrespect) on the Montgomery City buses by taking their case to federal court. They won! Segregation on the buses was declared unconstitutional, and the Supreme Court agreed. And so, the boycott ended. Those of us who know must share our knowledge with those who don't.

[@stanbeal1820]

Teach!

[@donnabarata2537]

I was in grade school in Phenix City AL AT The time of the bus boycot. They closed our schools at the time they thought there would be riots there were none in Phenix City al. Watching this on the TV news made me cry. Our family did not disrespect people of color

"Stand up for righteousness and justice" MLK. I wish you could tell these world leaders just half of that MLK quote.

[@washingtonfootballfanwgil8392]

There were reasons Claudette Colvin was not identified and associated with this campaign. Those decisions were made based on the era these people were living in. A pregnant, unwed teenage girl, alleged to be pregnant by a married man was not a good role figure in the 1950s. I give thanks for her courage to resist but, when the lawsuit was filed, she was one of five named in the lawsuit. So, it is not like only she and Mrs. Parks were ever discriminated against in Montgomery. Just as the 1953 Baton Rouge Bus Boycott paved the way for Montgomery, Claudette Colvin preceeded Rosa Parks.

[@stanbeal1820]

Yes! Claudette Colvin did preceed Rosa Parks and her testimony in court was the most powerful of the four ladies that abolished segregation on the Montgomery, Alabama buses. Rosa Parks was a fraud and more people are finding that out.

[@brianfreeman8290]

From Britain, I'd love to visit your museum. It sickens me that people of colour, and, lately, anybody perceived as 'unorthodox', continue to struggle. Your country is currently going backwards.

That's odd, I thought that bus was at the Henry Ford Museum in Dearborn, Michigan. I've seen pictures of the bus when it was added to the museum, and it didn't have a Pepsi-Cola advertisement, like the bus in this video.

[@ashleywhitethisisabsolutel1004]

America still has a very long way to go when you consider places like the UK and various other places around Europe. We are far more accepting an understanding of integration in these parts of the world than America has ever been, and if you look at the inequality faced by blacks today in America, it’s still quite gross The year that I am referring to is 2023 is still an awful lot of persecution that goes on in America, and in various other parts of the world, of course, but America has gotten hell of a long way to go before things are anywhere near as good as they should be. Dr Martin Luther King was an extraordinary human being God bless America x

Mark Howard You should have IDIOT GUILT for stealing smart peoples' air. Id love to segregate you from our air.

[@vivian_le_]

MattsGotIssue I assume from your tone and word choice, you think that you are one of the "smart people" and just because Mark is a white person or any other reason that gives you the ability to call Mark an idiot and that he is "stealing smart people's air"? Your username sure is correct. For whatever reasons you most certainly do have issues, but you should sometimes not speak and keep your rudeness in check. Mark was just commenting about his association with the white people by being white makes him feel guilty.

[@bigj4573]

It’s not meant to make you feel guilt

[@michaelpalmieri7335]

OMG! I just knew that sooner or later, some ignorant right-wing jackass was going to come crawling out of the woodwork to link this museum and its subject with communism. That's the whole trouble with you conservatives. Anything and everything you dislike or fear, whether it's Civil Rights, Women's Lib, Gay Rights, environmentalism, Universal Healthcare, etc, you automatically assume that it's some kind of "Red" plot designed to "destroy our American way of life," as if our way of life has to include racial injustice, women being relegated to nothing but housework and motherhood, the persecution of those of different sexual orientations, a world full of pollution, people being unable to afford decent medical care, etc. If that's the American way, then so was slavery! I'll bet you're one of Donald Trump's MAGA maniacs, or a fan of Marjorie Taylor Greene, or Lauren Boebert, or any one of these far-right zealots who are always screaming about the "Red Menace," or about how Socialism leads to "nothing but death, destruction, and oppression." (Tell that to those Scandinavian countries that have been practicing Democratic Socialism for over a century, and don't have even half of the problems we have here) As I've often said, these misguided fools confuse Democratic Socialism with the totalitarian forms of Socialism (AKA Communism) as practiced in the Communist countries (China, North Korea, Cuba, the former Soviet Union, etc). As for "death, destruction, and oppression," there was plenty of that in the countries that practiced FASCISM (Italy under Mussolini, Germany under Hitler, Spain under Generalissimo Franco, etc), which seems to be what the Trumpers and the MAGAs want for the United States.
