Behind the scenes[[edit] | [edit source]]
Although unnamed in the episode, the man is Donald Riegle, former US Senator from Michigan. The footage used in the episode is actually from a Clinton campaign rally in 1992, at which Riegle spoke.[1] In the real world, Riegle retired from the Senate in 1995, four years prior to Rosa Parks being awarded the Congressional Gold Medal.
