Rosa Parks and Corretta Scott King

I have seen Mrs King on TV several times. She and Mrs Parks are two ladies who are great examples of what a true lady should be.

I admire Mrs Parks for her courage in a time when the colored people of this country were treated so poorly. She is a person to be admired. The country will be a lonlier place without her.
