WASHINGTON (AP) --

In death, Rosa Parks is joining a select few, including presidents
and war heroes, accorded a public viewing in the
Capitol Rotunda.
It's the place where, six years ago, President Clinton
and congressional leaders lauded the former seamstress
for a simple act of defiance that changed the course
of race relations.
On Sunday, Parks becomes the first woman to lie in
honor in the vast circular room under the Capitol dome.
