It's not what MLK did, or what Rosa Parks did specifically. It's about giving courage to a people to stand up for their rights. It would not have happened at that time without the leaders who could give voice, but it still would have happened.

We've come a long way. It's a good day to remember where we have been and where we might go, as a society, in the future.
