I loved all of what Nipsey said 15.05

[@BluePoetProductions]

Amazing that in 1980, people didn't know what Rosa Parks looked like.

[@David-yw2lv]

It was 25 years later,she pretty much faded into obscurity after the incident.

[@diamonddog13]

"Ms. Parks, thank you for being such an inspiration and helping launch the civil rights movement. You win $300!"

[@MMMarvelous]

Yes, that was tacky indeed

[@DJDizzyStorms]

Forever an icon who stood up for her rights & refused to move just because she was tired. Talk about amazing

[@MilesBellas]

She refused to stand up when asked on the bus then stands up when asked. What a character !😅

[@MMMarvelous]

Nipsey's speech was excellent. I can tell right away that he knew Rosa because of the names he was throwing out there. I've lived here in Montgomery all my life. There's a school & a street named for Edgar D. Nixon, and Rosa has a street named for her and a large museum and a life-size statue positioned at the curb in the center of town that looks like someone waiting for a bus or trying to cross the street, and I always have to look twice thinking it's a real person.

[@karlabanks4908]

Wow..I never seen or heard Miss Rosa Parks speak before, I was wondering if Nipsey was going to disqualify himself but I’m really surprised at Kitty Carlisle, she’s usually very well read. What a treasure.

[@juliussignars4614]

I cannot believe that these people did not know Miss Rosa Parks in 1980. Where were they living?

[@rucksplash12]

I’m sure most or all of them knew very well who she was, but it was a different time. Rosa Parks wasn’t exactly on TV regularly in 1980, and her photo wasn’t in the newspaper regularly, so they might not have had any idea what she looked like. Jimmy Carter was on What’s My Line in 1975, a year before he was elected president, without wearing a mask, and none of them had any idea who he was.

[@chuckers40]

Rosa Parks played an important role in history. How the heck can one go through life without hearing or reading one sentence about her?!

[@victorblock3421]

How about you write a book and produce a movie?

[@feralbluee]

as of at least the ‘70’s, everyone knew who she was and how she looked.

[@debonaireslots]

I would beg to differ... i was born and raised in Detroit and people would walk past Mother Rosa everyday and didnt know they were in the presence of an icon... a man actually assaulted her in 94 (he didnt do so well in jail) but alot of folks did not recognize her in public

[@feralbluee]

hi - but you did know about her, right? even though people didn’t recognize her in person. that’s what i was meaning to say. hope her afterlife is wonderful, as it most likely is 😊🌷🌱 i’m glad that guy got in trouble in prison! :P

@@feralbluee yes I knew about her... but many ppl didnt... you said everyone knew how she looked and thats not true... she lived a very modest life

[@mw7584]

Actually he’s doing an impression of Bud Collyer the original TTTT host.

[@Powerranger-le4up]

It took a little time for me to recognize the real Rosa Parks, but it was mostly because I had only seen one picture of her and had to look at the face. It doesn’t surprise me that most of the panel didn’t recognize her. There’s a difference between knowing about a person and actually seeing them. Since Rosa kept to herself and wasn’t in the spotlight a lot, they probably wouldn’t know what she looked like.

[@t.edmonds7813]

I'm not surprised. Some people are only attentive and concerned about events and plight that affect themselves and their families. I knew Nipsey Russell would show adulation.

[@tomtransport]

I thought I would tell the whole story. She got on the bus, was very tired from working all day and walked to the line across the aisle about 1/2 way or so into the bus and sat down just to the rear of it in what was called the colored section. As the bus made more stops the bus filled with more blacks and more whites. The white section, in front of that line, filled up so the bus driver asked Rosa to move farther back into the bus beyond the line she was already back of. I guess that was the rule/custom back then. That is what she refused to do. She was, from the time she got on the bus till arrested, sitting in, what was called at the time, the colored section. Was the whole thing staged, I am not sure but I think people having to be segregated by the color of their skin was absurd. I've known Rosa on sight for 35 or more years now and recognized her right away. Be cool to put her on a 20 dollar bill for a few years and switch to other historical/prominent blacks every few years or so. It's also interesting that liar # 2 at 12:22 or so mentions "truthfully" that there was a younger girl that did this first 9 months earlier but did not say her name, It was Claudette Colvin. BTW, I'm white.😝😝😝😝

[@MilesBellas]

She stood up when asked !

[@lissalives1]

Rosa Parks was NOT the first African American to refuse to give up her seat. It was Claudette Colvin. Look it up.

[@Adam-do8eh]

So did Rosa Parks have a better publicist????

[@tomtransport]

@@Adam-do8eh In a way, YES. She got the NAACP to back her up and a boycott of the public transportation system in Montgomery. That led to removing the line in the bus/trolly car/ETC that Blacks had to sit to the rear of or back of the bus. Claudette was young, unmarried and pregnant at the time. The NAACP wanted a older person with less baggage? Seems to me the NAACP did some discrimination of their own.🙄🤔🙄🤔

[@razorback9926]

October 2022, the “original” Rosa Parks is still alive at 83. Claudette Colvin was 9 months prior to Rosa, but the NAACP wanted a more mature figurehead, so they re-staged what happened to Claudette using Rosa. It’s a shame that Claudette Colvin is not a household name, she deserves the credit more than Rosa.

[@sassiebrat]

A little disingenuous. Colvon wasn't chosen because she was pregnant and not married. The leaders of the NAACP thought this would taint the cause.

[@razorback9926]

@@sassiebrat Disingenuous nothing. Colvin is the “original” Rosa Parks. Colvin was one of the plaintiffs in Browder v. Gayle, the Supreme Court case that overturned bus segregation laws natiobwide. Rosa Parks was not part of the case at all. The only thing disingenuous is not giving Colvin the credit she deserves.

[@razorback9926]

@@BluePoetProductions Disrespectful nothing. Their names are inextricably linked, but most people have no clue who Claudette is. I have been posting about Claudette for 20 years now, trying to drum up support. But it mostly falls on deaf ears. You don’t help the cause by trying to unlink their names.

[@razorback9926]

@@BluePoetProductions You are the one unlinking. I used quotes around “original” to indicate an adjective, not a noun. Grow up.

[@tomtransport]

Seems to me the NAACP did some discrimination of their own. At 12:22 or so #2 mentions the "younger girl" but not by name.

[@feralbluee]

great respect for Rosa Parks and i doubt there are very few people over 50, and many, many young people who know what great courage she had what she means to people!! We all know which woman she was of the three. But i was amazed that she wasn’t recognized by everyone else at the time of this show!!!!! (the first meaningful thing during that time that i remember, is when Medgar Evers was killed as i really liked him and his leadership. but, like MalcolmX, he was one who should not have gone that way. . . 🌷) Nipsy Russell’s remarks were perfect and i love how he brought up the names of the people who were involved in that March. Gordon Jump was the only other person there who felt the gravitas of her part in and the whole anti-segregation movement. . . so kudos to the two of them and the Producers of this show!! (the host did say his part with much respect.) (My mom and i loved Harry Belafonte. my favorite songs were the Banana Boat song and the short song that ends , “The higher up the cherry tree, the sweeter the cherrrry. The more you hug and kiss a girl, the quicker she will marry!” the way he sang it, it had the same feeling as “Don’t Worry, Be Happy!”. :) 🌼😸🌷

So is this supposed to be an example of "you can't tell black people apart" and no one is considering the fact that K-LUX is what appears as an advertisement Obviously that is a message to who and what that is for you to determine. 12:12 obviously she is trying not to laugh and frankly you don't need a movement to stand to what is wrong the Japanese stood up against imprisonment during ww2 and they had no movement prior they stood up to injustice to do it because it was affecting them.
