Why is that in Speaker's Corner?

This is the lady who started the modern day civil rights movement. She belongs here. :)

I couldn't agree more. But to me, Speaker's Corner = controversy. I hope no one thinks there's any doubt about her legacy...:)

Speaker's Corner = controversy



often you're right. [:/]

However I also like to think that sometimes Speakers Corner = people educated enough to know and care about what's going on around them and wish to discuss those issues with other like minded individuals - irrespective of which side of the controversy they sit.

Just like I put my Trafalgar commemoration thread here last week - it belonged somewhere where people weren't going to turn it into a thread about boobies.

Anyway, there's also a thread in Bonfire -- this is our own thread here :)
