The Republican National Committee scrambled to retrack a tweet, Sunday, which was meant to honor the late Rosa Parks. 

It was the 58^th anniversary of Parks' arrest in Alabama after her bold move refusing to give up her seat in the bus for a white man. 

RNC initially tweeted:

"Today we remember Rosa Parks' bold stand and her role in ending racism."

Immediately RNC's Rosa Parks tweet caused wildfire on Twitter and was instantly mocked. People commented on how racism is still an existing societal issue in America.

The Republican National Committee then backtracked the statement with another tweet:

'Previous tweet should have read "Today we remember Rosa Parks' bold stand and her role in fighting to end racism."

The second tweet now emphasizes on the role of Rosa Parks in the 'fight and struggle' to end racism. A survey done by Pew Research Center back in May showed that 88% of blacks and 57% of whites still believe that there is still some racism towards African-Americans.

This current gaffe caused by the poorly worded tweet started to shift towards the real narrative behind the Republican Party and even towards their GOP program. With the party having been stereotyped as 'hostile to minority voters', the Republican Party's effort with the GOP in reaching out to the minority voters seems to be more far from the ideal reality.

Before the election that put President Obama into office, a major number of whites, Latinos and blacks feel that there is widespread racism towards African-Americans.
