I couldn't help that notice that every person featured in a photo of Rosa Parks mourners was either African-American, an elected offical, or both. The only white speaker I could find listed at her funeral was Bill "first black President" Clinton.
This is either a mild indictment of the media or white America. If the tribute to Rosa Parks was a multi-racial affair, the press ought to show that to us. But if only a handful of white folks took the time to pay their respects, it would show us just how much more work there is to do to bridge racial divides in this country, even in the 21st century.
