What are they teaching in schools?

This just in under the heading of: Sad But True.

On the bus just now, in the seat in front of me sat a girl of about 12 or 14 and I imagine her little sister of maybe eight years. I should point out that the bus company here has affixed a gold oval sticker to the window opposite the first seat on each bus. The sticker reads some thing like; ... In memory of Rosa Parks, and gives her earthly beginning and end dates. Anywho, the younger girl points to the sticker and asks her sister, what's that for? The older sister explains while the younger and the mother who was seated nearest to them listens. "That's for Rosa Parks... back in the day she sat in this seat and they wanted her to move to the back and she wouldn't, she proudly offered." The mother smiled as if she was very proud of the girl.

I first wondered if the mother thought it best to explain later. I then thought that maybe she thought that her daughter was correct. Did I mention that we are roughly 1,100 miles from where Rosa Parks sat in defiance so long ago.
