There is a lack of interest in voting in the United States, and that troubles me. It is very necessary that people get registered, study the issues and be aware of the politics of our country. We will really be set back if people don't take the time to learn about the candidates who are concerned about the well-being of all the citizens and vote.
Rosa Parks
To bring about change, you must not be afraid to take the first step. We will fail when we fail to try.
Rosa Parks
When people made up their minds that they wanted to be free and took action, then there was a change.
Rosa Parks
I believe there is only one race - the human race.
Rosa Parks
I will always work for human rights for all people.
Rosa Parks
