That was a fascinating article. I had no idea that the boycott lasted as long as it did. Incredible sacrifice!
Remember going to see The Long Walk Home?

I know! I thought the same thing, I had no idea it went on for over a year. She's really someone I'd like to know more about.
And as for "The Long Walk Home", yes I do! (for the rest of you, "The Long Walk Home" was a 1990 movie (holy crap, that's 15 years ago) set against the Alabama bus boycotts starring Whoopi Goldberg and Sissy Spacek. It's hard to tell whether things I liked when I was 16 are actually any good, but I recall being very impressed by it.
