OUR AUNTIE ROSA The Family of Rosa Parks Remembers Her Life and Lessons

Narrator Robin Eller delivers these varied remembrances of Rosa Parks by her extended family with care and respect. It's an intimate look at a legend that goes beyond what's in history textbooks--for example, Parks saved the hate mail she received, and she practiced yoga later in her life. The respective authors aren't identified until the end of each essay, which can lead to some confusion. Multiple narrators might have made sense, or at least a male voice to provide some contrast with Eller's. Nevertheless, listeners will be rewarded with insights about both the continuing work and the private life of this Civil Rights hero. J.M.D. © AudioFile 2016, Portland, Maine [Published: JANUARY 2016]
