Civil Rights Movement

Rosa Parks was a quiet, dignified African-American woman who, in the face of injustice, chose to politely defy a racist law. Her simple act of refusal-to give up her bus seat to a white passenger-ignited a powerful movement and galvanized a community whose "cup of endurance" had long since overflowed. Her arrest sparked the Montgomery Bus Boycott, during which 40,000 African-Americans peacefully crippled the city's transportation system in protest of segregation.Discover a plethora of topics such as A Dark Legacy The Winds of Change The Stage Is Set The Civil Rights Movement Life After the Boycott And much more!Discover the inspiring story of Rosa Parks, the courageous woman whose quiet act of defiance sparked the Civil Rights Movement.
