Rosa Parks, formerly a commuter from Montgomery, AL, now lives in Detroit. Like many people, she's had some trouble with her landlord.
"Rosa Parks' landlord has offered to let her stay in her apartment rent-free, two years after threatening to evict her when the owners said her caretakers missed rental payments."
That's a nice thing to do.
"Hartford Memorial Baptist Church in Detroit had been paying Parks' rent, which had been as high as $1,800 a month, since August 2003, the Rev. Charles Adams said."
$1,800! In Detroit!?! Was she living in the Silverdome?
More recently, Parks' lawyers have filed two suits involving the hip-hop duo OutKast and their record company, BMG, over a song titled "Rosa Parks." They seek a total of $5 billion.
Yes, I think $5 Billion sounds fair.
