Rosa Parks Centennial events
Reading the newspaper today, and noticed an article about the centennial of Rosa Parks' birth. Many events will be held around the country, including here in the Metro Detroit area. The Henry Ford Museum and The Charles H. Wright Museum of African-American History are hosting a day of events tomorrow, including a stamp unveiling, remembrances by dignitaries and performances by school groups. I'll try to make both events, and report back here on TWaSbL on how they were.
