Danh ngôn của Claudette Colvin
Whenever people ask me: 'Why didn't you get up when the bus driver asked you?' I say it felt as though Harriet Tubman's hands were pushing me down on one shoulder and Sojourner Truth's hands were pushing me down on the other shoulder. I felt inspired by these women because my teacher taught us about them in so much detail.

Bất cứ khi nào mọi người hỏi tôi: 'Tại sao bạn không đứng dậy khi tài xế xe buýt hỏi bạn?' Tôi nói có cảm giác như thể tay của Harriet Tubman đang đẩy tôi xuống một bên vai và tay của Sojourner Truth đang đẩy tôi xuống vai bên kia. Tôi cảm thấy được truyền cảm hứng từ những người phụ nữ này vì giáo viên của tôi đã dạy chúng tôi về họ rất chi tiết.
