In each person's life there comes a time when it is important to be  brave. Often all we need is someone to go before us to point the way, to show us where to place the weight of our convictions. 

As Nikki Giovanni said in her poem
“Harvest”:

…Something needs to be said…about Rosa Parks…

other than her feet…were tired…

…Lots of people…on that bus...and many before…

and since…had tired feet...lots of people…still do…

they just don’t know…where to plant them…



Add your name below to a growing band of readers who want to honor those heroes on whose shoulder we stand. As the book makes its journey from publication, launch, and cross-country publicity tour, we'll use the email address you provide  to keep you updated on the impact Miss Hazel and the Rosa Parks League is having on the world. Words, too, have been known to initiate great change.
