00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:04.639
(Around 1940) So I got on the bus,
there was no place to sit.

2
00:00:04.639 --> 00:00:09.560
I kept going towards the back.
And finally there was one place

3
00:00:09.560 --> 00:00:14.679
and I asked the black man,
"May I sit next to you ?"

4
00:00:14.679 --> 00:00:21.239
Because I knew that was not customary.
And what could he say?

5
00:00:21.239 --> 00:00:26.679
I was a white woman.
So I sat down and the bus driver

6
00:00:26.679 --> 00:00:31.839
he got up and said:
" We ain't gonna have none of that."

7
00:00:31.839 --> 00:00:37.439
And I said: "That's OK. I'll stand."
And that's what I did.

8
00:00:37.439 --> 00:00:40.560
And nobody said anything.

9
00:00:40.560 --> 00:00:45.439
I don't know whether
that made any impression or not.

10
00:00:45.439 --> 00:00:49.920
But it made an impression on me

11
00:00:49.920 --> 00:00:55.000
that I could make a statement
no matter where.
