Talk:Claudette Colvin

message: Who the heck is Price?  There's a mention of somebody named Price testifying on Colvin's behalf, but no explanation of who they were. David A Spitzley (talk) 16:19, 4 June 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: It looks like whoever added the "Price" line got the information from here (or wherever the original content is actually from): Claudette Colvin and the classmate's name is Annie Larkins Price. Checkeredshawn (talk) 15:33, 3 September 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I managed to find a source for the Price line - the Huntsville Times article. And yes, Price is Annie Larkins Price, Colvin's classmate. As far as core-online.org, I'm not sure whether that article came before or after the quote was added to the Wikipedia article. If before, which seems doubtfull, then we need to determine how authoratative that source would be (doesn't really matter since I found the newspaper citation). If it came after, than Wikipedia is the original source for the core-online article. --RossF18 (talk) 04:37, 27 November 2009 (UTC)

message: In the the second paragraph of the "Bus Incident" section, it says that "four hobos" entered the bus, and I was wondering if this is still the appropriate name for them. Parad0x130 (talk) 04:25, 26 January 2010 (UTC)

message: This statement "Given the social norms of the time and her youth.." as justification for the lack of recognition of Colvin is nonsense. Even today, with very different "social norms" the NAACP and almost every other civil rights group continues to suppress the story of Colvin, preferring instead to have the more acceptable Rosa Parks as their poster child. 
It still remains incumbent on NAACP et al to give this brave young woman her deserved day in the sun. However this Wikipedia section needs to be reworded so as to remove the suggested gentrification of hiding this light under a bushel. Please!

replies: text: Not sure what you want here, but anybody can add stuff to a Wikipedia article, if you have a good source. If you don't know the drill, just put everything in the body of the article and somebody will come along and make the right format. Cheers! BeenAroundAWhile (talk) 02:09, 14 January 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree that there is a lot of opportunity for editing in this article. I will be adding some information about Colvin's life and the incident itself over the next few days. Annhayes21 (talk) 05:36, 9 December 2019 (UTC)

message: The article does not say exactly when Raymond Colvin was born.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 188.39.71.98 (talk) 09:25, 8 February 2018 (UTC)
thread_title:  Exact time 

message: Within the "Bus incident" section: "Black women are constantly oversexualized. When discussing the injustice of Colvin being forced to give up her seat, one cannot minimize the injustice of sexual harassment by those who are supposed to serve and protect. The police officers who took her to the station made inappropriate comments about her body and took turns guessing her bra size throughout the ride."
Hardly a neutral tone, never mind its questionable relevance to the article.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.97.30.30 (talk) 20:08, 17 December 2019 (UTC)

message: We need more current photos, for she's still alive.

thread_title:  More photos needed 

message: The two concluding sentences of the first paragraph in this section Momentum on the case started to slow down until stopping after finding out that Colvin was several months pregnant and has been prone to outbursts and cursing.[24] Therefore the case was dropped and a boycott and legal case never materialized. (italics added) are erroneous and the cited footnote at the end of the first of the two sentences does not support the statement made. As the followingg paragraph makes clear, momentum did not cease, the case proceeded and ultimately resulted in judgement for the plaintiffs. I am deleting the sentences.

thread_title:  Browder v Gayle 

message: The overuse of pronouns at the end of the early life section adds confusion --> ″Delphine, her younger sister, became very ill with polio and died two days before her 13th birthday."  I'm not sure if we are saying Delphine died two days before her own 13th birthday or if we mean Delphine died two days before Claudette's 13th birthday.

message: Content speculating on the identity of Colvin's son's father was added Jun 18, 2021, by an unregistered editor. The only source provided was a post on Medium, which is a self-published source and unsuitable to support BLP content. I have removed it. It should not be added back to the article without a reliable source. Schazjmd (talk) 14:13, 11 March 2022 (UTC)

message: I just wanted to add that Hidden Histories did an episode on Colvin. I will attempt to link it here, but I accessed it through a school resources, so I don't know if others can view it. Still, I found it surprising that it was not mentioned, given the relative limited data on the subject. 207.62.238.133 (talk) 20:37, 22 March 2023 (UTC)
