Susanna Fletcher Greer, Chief Scientific Officer of the V Foundation, shared a post on LinkedIn:
“Today marks the anniversary of Rosa Parks’ quiet but world-shifting act of courage. Her refusal to give up her seat on December 1, 1955, ignited a movement that reshaped our nation.
I’m reflecting on her legacy and the reminder that progress is driven by people who choose dignity, justice, and equity, even when the cost is high. Her courage continues to inspire the work we do to ensure every person has access to quality cancer prevention, treatment, and research. We honor her not just by remembering, but by acting.”
