[ Comment by a veteran of the
Southern civil rights struggle
(1960-63):


Sometimes Rosa Parks was portrayed as
an ordinary naive person,
when she sparked the Montgomery bus boycott in the 1950s,
and thus turned young Rev. King into a leader.

But, in fact, her NAACP activism went back to
the 1930s and 1940s;
and she attended the left-wing Highlander Folk School. ]
