Just a short postscript to yesterday's piece . . .
I wholeheartedly believe that small acts, whether of kindness or defiance, have great power and value for their own sake. They keep us human, and they give us courage. But if you don't also believe that these small acts can move mountains, remember Rosa Parks, who refused to give up her seat to a white person in racially segregated 50s America, sparking the Montgomery Bus Boycott and becoming an icon of the Civil Rights movement. Her act of courage fomented social revolution - you never know when yours could do the same.
