Arrest me for sitting on a bus? You may do that.

Why do you all push us around?

I had felt for a long time, that if I was ever told to get up so a white person could sit, that I would refuse to do so.

The only tired I was, was tired of giving in.

I thought about Emmett Till, and I could not go back. My legs and feet were not hurting, that is a stereotype. I paid the same fare as others, and I felt violated. I was not going back.

I believe there is only one race - the human race.

People need to free their minds of racial prejudice and believe in equality for all and freedom regardless of race. It would be a good thing if all people were treated equally and justly and not be discriminated against because of race or religion or anything that makes them different from others.
