What Is A Famous Quote From Rosa Parks Novels & Stories

In the interrogation room, Rosa still refused to cooperate with the investigation. She was seated in the suspect's chair, her arms tightly crossed. Her eyes reflected both contempt and disgust.

I’m sorry, I thought this place was seat yourself.” “Go seat yourself over with the rogues,” she barked. “We don’t need the likes of you stinking up this area for the pack rogues.” I furrowed my eyebrows. This couldn’t be right. I thought Rosa Parks had already done her job. The woman grabbed my arm roughly, dragging me out of my seat. Like any she-wolf, she towered over me.

Look at these rare flowers, these flowers are you. These flowers are the black people. Just because the roses are more popular, does not mean that the rare flowers are any less beautiful.
