Rep. Cori Bush invoked the memory of Rosa Parks on the anniversary of her famous arrest, quoting Parks’ refusal to give up her bus seat.
The comments received criticism online, with many questioning what rights Bush did not have and suggesting she focus on contemporary issues.

“People always say that I didn’t give up my seat because I was tired, but that isn’t true…No, the only tired I was, was tired of giving in.”

We must continue to refuse to give in, in our fight for liberation.
