all the woman did was say she was too tired and didn't feel like standing up. and then she got stubborn and reacted out of pride.




a pride she wasn't afforded. a pride she didn't have the right to. a pride that no one else at the time showed.

it wasn't oprah '05 refusing to give up a seat, because her hundred dollar shoes hurt her feet. it was, essentially, a second-class human taking the stance that she wasn't second class.

it was someone doing what no one else had done before, what no one else "could" or "should" have done before. it was a contemporary impossibility, an unbreakable wall, an unthinkable impass.

"that's it."

history is filled with "minor" or even "faceless" heroes, whose ramifications on society and future generations has been astounding. whether the original ripple was initiated intentionally, purposefully, as a reaction, or as a pro-active movement simply does not matter.



what you call "too lazy," most everyone else acknowledges as "triumphantly revolutionary."
