Rosa Parks
Sull'autore
Rosa Parks is best known for her pivotal role in the American Civil Rights Movement, particularly for her courageous act of refusing to give up her bus seat to a white passenger in Montgomery, Alabama, in 1955. This defiance sparked the Montgomery Bus Boycott, a significant event that played a crucial role in the fight against racial segregation in the United States. Parks' actions and the subsequent boycott brought national attention to the Civil Rights Movement and galvanized efforts toward achieving equality for African Americans.
