Hej folk, her til aften!
Jeg har lavet en engelsk oversættelse af en dansk tekst. Jeg synes altid jeg får en masse fejl, når jeg har lavet en aflevering, og ville gerne denne gang prøve at sende en god en. Jeg har læst den igennem et par gange, men synes ikke rigtig jeg kan finde flere fejl. Er der en venlig sjæl derude, som kunne tænke sig at læse den igennem, og se på eventuelle manglere? :-)
Tak på forhånd!
Rosa L. Parks was 40 years old, when she one day in 1955 sat down in the back of the bus in Montgomery on her way home, from one days hard work, as a machinist in one of Alabama’s textile factory. At the next bus stop a white man came down through the aisle of the bus, which was filling with travelers. The local laws required at the time – in 1955 – not alone that the black had to sit in the back, but also that a Negro had to stand up if a white demanded the seat. It was what now happened. The little black woman looked up. “No” she said. The bus driver interfered himself with the authority in the case and demanded the same. “No” Rosa L. Parks said. When the two policemen from the police force of Montgomery showed up at the place, they put her in handcuffs, took her to the police station, put
her in jail and fined her at last with 10 dollars. “No” Rosa L. Parks said. Her stubborn and repeated no released 381 days of boycott by the black of the busses of Montgomery, which in the end was about to go bankruptcy. Her case was sent through the administration of justice, until the Supreme Court gave her the 10 dollars back. It brought until that an unknown black priest in the town, a certain Martin Luther King, out in the front row of the fight of the citizenship. Rosa L. Parks was absolutely aware what she had done and had decided that it was the only way she could demonstrate that she wouldn’t put up with to be treated like an outcast after the race lows degraded rules. She was in other words activist, after the conditions of the time. If you study the conditions closer, you see that the bus boycotts also was started in the southern states, before Rosa L. Parks refused to stand up, and that there was considerable concern, before pastor Martin Luther King became known in Montgomery. But of course it is historically correct that is was her stubbornness, who released the first demonstration in real size, exactly the economic draining of the bus company, like this Martin Luther King started his running track as civil rights leader, that running track which should be ended with the shot in Memphis thirteen years later. Martin Luther King was appointed to lead the boycott against the busses and when he was arrested that year – the first of 15 times – he said: “Even though we are being arrested every day, even though we are being abused every day, even though we are being trampled on every day, do never let any pull you so far down that you will hate them. In Detroit where Rosa L. Parks now live, there are formed a committee, which will make sure that Rosa’s deed will not be forgotten and the committee has got a street though the city’s black neighborhood named Rosa Parks Bouldevard. The committee has gathered one million kroner to a nursing home on the Boulevard which will also be housing Rosa Parks, which husband died some years ago. If the money can be gathered declares she, she won’t say no this time.

Rosa L. Parks was 40 years old on the day in 1955, when she sat down in the back of a bus in Montgomery. After a hard day at work she was on her way home. She worked as a machinist in one of Alabama’s many textile factories. At the next bus stop a white man went through the aisle of the bus, which was filling with travelers. The local laws in 1955 not only required the Black to sit in the back, but also that a Negro had to stand up if a White demanded the seat. That was what happened now. The little Black woman looked up. “No” she said. The bus driver interfered and demanded the same. "No", Rosa L. Parks said. When two policemen from the Montgomery Police Department showed up, they handcuffed her, and took her to the police station. They put her in jail and finally imposed a fine of 10 dollars on her. Rosa L. Parks refused to pay the fine. Her stubbornness resulted in that the Black population boycotted the busses of Montgomery for 381 days. In the end the bus company was about to go bankrupt. Her case was sent to the Supreme Court which gave her the 10 dollars back. It brought a then unknown Black priest into town, a certain Martin Luther King. He took a stand in the fight for Black civil rights. Rosa L. Parks was absolutely clear on what she had done, and she had decided that it was the only way to demonstrate that she wouldn’t accept being treated like an outcast, as the race laws degrading rules demanded of her. In other words, she was an activist. If you study the circumstances back then closer, you will see that the bus boycotts had been in progress in the southern states even before Rosa L. Parks refused to stand up, and that there was considerable concern even before Reverend Martin Luther King became known in Montgomery. But of course it is historically correct that is was her stubbornness that provoked the first demonstration of considerable size, in particular to put pressure on the economy of the bus company. Moreover, Martin Luther King started his career as a civil rights leader, a career that should be ended with an assault in Memphis thirteen years later. Martin Luther King was appointed to lead the boycott against the bus company and when he was arrested that same year – the first time out of 15 times altogether– he said: “Even though we are being arrested every day, even though we are being abused every day, even though we are being trampled on every day, do never let any pull you so far down that you will hate them." In Detroit, where Rosa L. Parks lives today, a committee was formed, which makes sure that Rosa’s deed will not be forgotten and the committee has got a street named after Rosa Parks, even though the Rosa Parks Bulevard runs through the city’s Black neighborhood. The committee has about to collect one million Danish kroner for a nursing home on the Boulevard which will also give home to Rosa Parks, whose husband has died some years ago. If the money can be collected she declares, she won’t say 'No' this time.
