It IS true, the course of history can be changed, the momentum shifted, by a single individual, no matter one's 'station' or stature in this life.
For my small part, i wish to honor this woman who had sand, or if you will, true grit. She was just sorely tired of the disrespect that she deserved as a person, a person who's right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness was smothered by the most vile, a 'humanism' ruled by egotism and profound ignorance, expressed in belligerent hate and fear.
She made a decision, stood her ground, and come what may she was ready to except it. All i can do now is offer a *humble bow* . May such spirit live ever on.

Unfortunately, racism is thriving today as much as ever.
