PREMIERE NETWORKS' syndicated all-Comedy format 24/7 COMEDY is offering special featured programming for ROSA PARKS DAY on TUESDAY (2/4).
The network, commemorating the day honoring the woman whose 1955 refusal to surrender her bus seat to a white person and move to the back of the bus in MONTGOMERY, AL became a galvanizing event in the civil rights movement, will air clips of interviews with African-American comedians who worked during the era, discussing the battle for civil rights and their experiences.
DICK GREGORY and the late SLAPPY WHITE and GODFREY CAMBRIDGE are among the comedians to be featured. The clips will air every hour at :57
