Rosa Parks sat so Martin Luther King, Jr. could march. Martin Luther King, Jr. marched so Barack Obama could run. Barack is running so our children can FLY! " But there is no attribute. Crispus is referring to one of the 5 killed in the Boston Massacre. <a href="http://www.dailykos.com/story/2008/10/29/15143/556/908/645922" target="_blank">http://www.dailykos.com/story/...8/645922</a>
