#RacismEndedWhen another customer at the farmers’ market this morning told me how articulate I seemed. #IUseWordsGud—@ggreeneva
#RacismEndedWhen this black professor's white students got her reprimanded for discussing race. http://t.co/...—@DrJaneChi
#RacismEndedWhen barely-literate Hunger Games viewers saw Rue was black & got mad or stopped caring she died http://t.co/...—@TeacherSabrina
Previous tweet should have read "Today we remember Rosa Parks' bold stand and her role in fighting to end racism."—@GOP
RNC: "And tomorrow we remember the Roberts Court's bold stand and its role in fighting to stop people like Rosa Parks from voting."—@billmon1
