Thats whats wrong with it.


Who lied?

I'm not sure that Ms. Parks claimed she was a tired Grandma. I think it was a story created by others.

In any case, I'd suggest you should look into it before you say she was lying. Here is a little of what the Wikipedia says:

Quote:
Parks detailed her motivation in this moment in her autobiography, My Story:

People always say that I didn't give up my seat because I was tired, but that isn't true. I was not tired physically, or no more tired than I usually was at the end of a working day. I was not old, although some people have an image of me as being old then. I was forty-two. No, the only tired I was, was tired of giving in.
