I'm really impressed with how language has developed over the years in this podcast

It is so good
Amazing and inspirational podcast about the strong woman who changed the world history with her strength and power. I have researched a lot about Rosa Parks for one of my college projects and here https://gradesfixer.com/free-essay-examples/rosa-parks/ I have read a few interesting facts that make me even more involved into the topic. I am sure that my final project will be also devoted to the civil rights movement and Rosa Parks as its main character.
