If I lived in 1956 I would try to change the world by standing up to whites making fun of black people. Because if there is one person standing up fuel will be added to the fire by another person joining in with the person’s conflict and more will come.
That was one problem with it at the time because if you stood up for a black you would be arrested. But Rosa Parks is one hero probably to white and black people today because the courage she had to stand up to the whites wrong point of view and tell them different while they were so used to it being them always getting more pay, more jobs, and more freedom.
There is a song by Brandon Heath I think. It’s called give me your eyes. That is also a very big problem because if you are seeing through God’s eyes you see the Inside not the outside. So I probably wish Brandon Heath and his thoughts were there at the time.
Hank Aaron blasted 756 home runs in his career to break the white Ruth’s record. So I think that showed whites that followed Major League Baseball that blacks have a capability of breaking white records in any athletic event. And one quote shows that Hank wasn’t interested in beating the record! By saying thank God that’s over!

The bus transit systems were one of the first to start allowing blacks at their time to be allowed to ride a bus without giving up their seat for a white.
