Civil Disobedience At Its Finest
On December 1, 1955, Rosa Louise Parks refused to give up her seat for a white passenger on a bus in Montgomery Alabama. Her arrest sparked a boycott of the bus line, and fueled by its gifted spokesperson, Martin Luther King, Jr., it quickly reverberated throughout the country. Parks is recognized as the mother of the modern day civil rights movement.
