Who Knew?


As the adage goes "a picture says a thousands words". But are the words, thoughts and emotions provoked from this photograph based on an actual event or a staged photo op?

I always thought the white dude in the back was an insensitive, indifferent bigot and racist - and maybe he was! But I came across an article that suggest a different story. Note: these new "findings" in no way minimize the impact and legacy of the late Rosa Parks. Just food for thought!
