I think it's a fairly new trend for our society to believe that the police are around to protect the rights of minority groups. Isn't the reason police exist to MAINTAIN SOCIAL ORDER? And if the social order in the South was maintained through laws of segregation and discrimination, isn't it the duty of the police to uphold the law? Yes, there were many instances of highly publicized police brutality, but in this particular instance, what are police supposed to do when they see the social order they are supposed to maintain begin to crumble? -schang</ins></div></td></tr> <tr><td class='diff-marker'> </td><td style="background-color: #f9f9f9; color: #333333; font-size: 88%; border-style: solid; border-width: 1px 1px 1px 4px; border-radius: 0.33em; border-color: #e6e6e6; vertical-align: top; white-space: pre-wrap;"></td><td class='diff-marker'> </td><td style="background-color: #f9f9f9; color: #333333; font-size: 88%; border-style: solid; border-width: 1px 1px 1px 4px; border-radius: 0.33em; border-color: #e6e6e6; vertical-align: top; white-space: pre-wrap;"></td></tr> <tr><td class='diff-marker'> </td><td style="background-color: #f9f9f9; color: #333333; font-size: 88%; border-style: solid; border-width: 1px 1px 1px 4px; border-radius: 0.33em; border-color: #e6e6e6; vertical-align: top; white-space: pre-wrap;"><div>'''Rosa was sitting in her right section, the back section that was reserved to the blacks, and was then asked to move.

She had done everything that was required of her and she hadn’t broken any rules. “After I had paid my fare and occupied a seat, I didn’t think I should have to give it up,” (222). Rosa was in the “right” section, had paid her fare, and was sitting down (she had paid for her seat). Just because white people came onto the bus and didn’t have a seat, the black people shouldn’t have been made to move. If black people had come onto the bus and didn’t have seats, they would have been made to stand in the aisle, so why shouldn’t have the white people been made too? Of course I am thinking in modern terms probably, it just seems so unfair. Just like the black and white people did, I would have lied about who was a part of bus boycott. I can understand why a majority of the white community would have lied for the black participates too. This way the black servants wouldn’t be locked up and they could continue to provide their services to the white families that employed them and in turn they would continue to receive a weekly check.

This article though eye-opening was not incredibly surprising. It is sad to see that though blacks were being accepted in some aspects of life and society, they process of "fitting in" or perhaps aesthetic assimilation is something that will never come to fruition.--MDvorak
