Friends, Claudette Colvin—the 15-year-old who refused to give up her seat on a Montgomery bus in March 1955 & joined the federal case against bus segregation that went to the Supreme Court — died today at age 86. But there are lots of myths and mis-impressions about her. A short corrective thread:

@janecasey.bsky.social really enjoyed your DLS talk today. I thought you balanced your discussion of Sayers with your own work really well. I don’t know if you got to take a picture of the display in the end so here’s the one I took before the event :)
A large red folding board with “Jane Casey DLS lecture” in yellow letters in the centre. Photographs, scraps of paper with writing on, and book covers of Casey’s ‘The Secret Room’ as well as Dorothy L Sayers’ ‘Who’s Body’ and ‘Unlikely Death’ are pinned around the central text, connected with string a la a detective movie conspiracy board.
