«Sister Rosa» τραγουδούν σήμερα οι «The Neville Brothers». Η Αφροαμερικανίδα μοδίστρα Ρόζα Παρκς που αρνήθηκε να δώσει τη θέση της στο λεωφορείο σε λευκό γεννήθηκε σαν σήμερα 4 Φεβρουαρίου του 1913.
December 1st, 1955
Our freedom movement came alive
And because of Sister Rosa you know
We don’t ride on the back of the bus no more
Sister Rosa she was tired one day
After a hard day on her job
When all she wanted was a well deserved rest
Not a scene from an angry mob
Now, the police came without fail
And took Sister Rosa off to jail
And 14 dollars was her fine
Brother Martin Luther King knew it was our time
The people of Montgomery sat down to talk
It was decided all God’s children should walk
Until segregation was brought to its knees
And we obtain freedom and equality, yeah
Thank you Miss Rosa, you are the spark
You started our freedom movement
Thank you Sister Rosa Parks
