家园 名人名言2

Around 6 p.m., Thursday, December 1, 1955,...The bus driver Blake moved the "colored" section sign behind Rosa Parks and demanded that four black people give up their seats in the middle section so that the white passengers could sit.

... ...

Parks moved, but toward the window seat; she did not get up to move to the redesignated colored section.[28] ......

Blake said, "Why don't you stand up?" Parks responded, "I don't think I should have to stand up."

Parks said, "When he saw me still sitting, he asked if I was going to stand up, and I said, 'No, I'm not.' And he said, 'Well, if you don't stand up, I'm going to have to call the police and have you arrested.' I said, 'You may do that.'"[30]

When Parks refused to give up her seat, a police officer arrested her. As the officer took her away, she recalled that she asked, "Why do you push us around?" She remembered him saying, "I don't know, but the law's the law, and you're under arrest."
