LOS ANGELES - April 20, 2023 - PRLog -- By Her Side by ELAINE STEELE with Gene Cartwright

Rosa L. Parks always spoke the truth. On September 13, 1991, she did just that in her warning against naming Clarence Thomas to the Supreme Court. She made clear Thomas would represent a U-turn, regarding civil rights. He has proved to be worse doing damage to integrity and honesty. See in By Her Side.

By Her Side 'Northstar is truth. It is a revealing autobiography whose timing is vital, given the 'code red' state of our democracy. We must not relent in confronting the attack on civil rights, black history, voting rights, truth, honesty, and the Constitution itself.

Mrs. Rosa Parks and Elaine Eason Steele met in Detroit in 1961, when Elaine was a 17-year-old high school student. For 45 years, until her passing in 2005, Mrs. Steele—Co-founder of the 'Rosa and Raymond Parks Institute for Self-Development'— was Mrs. Parks' closest friend, senior assistant, principal advisor and confidante, fellow civil rights activist, and, as Mrs. Parks described, her spiritual daughter.

It is unfortunate that only after Mrs. Parks' death have some engaged in revisionist history and regrettable internecine arguments regarding her singularly critical role—an ordained role—whose relevance and impact endures.

By Her Side, Mrs. Steele's new autobiography explodes myths and untruths arising since Mrs. Parks' passing—myths that seek to diminish the fact her selfless act was the spark that ignited the historic Montgomery Bus Boycott.

Mrs. Steele makes clear, in By Her Side, that Mrs. Parks' activism well-predates her refusal to surrender her bus seat on December 1, 1955. In one infamous case, she represented Mrs. Recy Taylor, a 24-year-old black mother raped by six white men in 1944. Another is the Scottsboro Boys case which Mrs. Parks' and her activist-husband, Raymond Parks represented.

Mrs. Parks' selfless act in 1955, then age 42, on a Montgomery bus, resulted in the organization, four days later, of the historic Montgomery Bus Boycott; no other incident had before. Elaine Eason Steele's book, By Her Side, presents a true view from the inside, not one born of speculation. It is time to set the record straight.
