In reality she was a seasoned political activist who saw an opportunity and seized the moment. <br /><br />From Duke's Tim Tyson, "There’s a sense in which Mrs. Parks is very important to our post-civil rights racial narrative, because we really want a kind of sugar-coated civil rights movement that’s about purity and interracial non-violence. And so we don’t really want to meet the real Rosa Parks. We don’t, for example, want to know that in the late 1960s, Rosa Parks became a black nationalist and a great admirer of Malcolm X. I met Rosa Parks at the funeral of Robert F. Williams, who had fought the Ku Klux Klan in North Carolina with a machine gun in the late 1950s and then fled to Cuba, and had been a kind of international revolutionary icon of black power. Ms. Parks delivered the eulogy at his funeral. She talks in her autobiography and says that she never believed in non-violence and that she was incapable of that herself, and that she kept guns in her home to protect her family. But we want a little old lady with tired feet. You may have noticed we don’t have a lot of pacifist white heroes. We prefer our black people meek and mild, I think."Elvinnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8307761.post-1130746195041355842005-10-31T16:09:00.000+08:002005-10-31T16:09:00.000+08:00Reasons: a spammer named icyblue, a scary dude nam...Reasons: a spammer named icyblue, a scary dude named m*** a****o.blogspot.com, and the anonymous "Asian pussy" posterArashi-KIshuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12095875706600887262noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8307761.post-1130671978091208502005-10-30T19:32:00.000+08:002005-10-30T19:32:00.000+08:00Arashi-Kishu: I'm back, actually.
