Rosa Parks to Lie In Honor in US Capitol...
A well deserved honor for a great woman...
"The body of civil rights icon Rosa Parks is to lie in honour in the US Capitol Rotunda - the first time that a woman has received the tribute.
The US Senate voted on Thursday to allow the move and Congress approved the decision on Friday.
The Senate resolution said the honour should allow US citizens "to pay their last respects to this great American."
The body of Mrs Parks, who died at her Detroit home on Tuesday aged 92, will lie in honour on Sunday and Monday."
