All day long the busses came. They came and came and came. Dropping off thousands upon uncounted thousands. All these busses filled with black folks, white folks, American folks. Some of these men and women came here long ago. Forty six years ago they came to this town. To this mall, this strip of dirt and grass and dreams. They came then to hear the good doctor call for justice to ring down from the mountains. They came today to hear justice delivered. Delivered and ringing along the marble facades and beaming millions lining this place. Justice arrived today in this town. Somewhere tonight Ms Parks remembers her journey, somewhere Dr. King is laughing with joy, somewhere even angels ride the bus.
