not sure but i think someone at the museum mis-informed him. maybe they got it wrong in the seating chart shown as Exhibit A... I seem to remember a picture of Parks on the same side as Obama, but that was a staged photo where she re-enacted the scene, right? a powerful picture nonetheless.

ON EDIT: (OMG- someone got their post hidden by jury for posting this- saying it was "malicious and hurtful"... THAT IS NOT MY INTENT HERE AT ALL- i merely mean to point out the discrepancy that happened somewhere...)

ON EDIT #2 (i really, really, really didn't mean any offense with this post- please, believe me!)
