White robe sighting
[ QUOTE ]
[Rosa Parks] was used as a pawn for a movement. Nothing wrong with that. [Sha was] a "test case" for something without having to do anything.

Nice gig if you can get it.

A pawn is meant to refer to someone who is unwillingly used by a higher power. Rosa Parks demonstrated by her stance throughout her life that she was nothing of the sort. She may not have been a rich girl and she did not enjoy the collective social power a white girl had by default, but she made the best she could out of the hand that life had dealt her.
Only someone who does not know her life story or is an unreconstructed racist would claim otherwise.
Anyway... I'm sure that in your particular mind frame, it is grating that all 'em uppity negros got ahead of themselves, caused all sorts of trouble down South and finally won their daymn Civil Rahts Act. I'm also sure that pictures (in magazines or, probably, mental) of black males fondling and doing other stuff to tender, succulent white female flesh gets you all upset.
That is what's nice.
