Rosa Parks

Rose Parks was born on February 4, 1913, in Tuskegee, Alabama. Her refusal to surrender her seat to white passengers on a Montgomery, Alabama bus spurred. Black people who lived in that city had to give up their seats for white people, but she refused. On December 1, 1955, after long days work a Montgomery department store, where she worked as a seamstress, she took a bus to go home. She took a seat in the first of seven rows designated for non ''colored'' passengers. However she didn't have the right to be in the specified row, or they have to give up their seat whenever a white person comes.

As the bus was riding continued on the route, it began to fill with white passengers. Eventually, the bus was full and the driver saw that  there were a lot of white passengers were standing in the aisle. He stopped the bus and moved the sign separating the two sections back one row and asked four black passengers to give up their seats. Three complied, but Rosa refused and remained seated. The driver demanded, "Why don't you stand up?" to which Rosa replied, "I don't think I should have to stand up." The driver called the police and had her arrested. Later, Rosa recalled that her refusal wasn't because she was physically tired, but that she was tired of giving in. But she never gives up on trying to ha the equality. 

Although she had became a symbol of the civil right movement. Rose suffered hardship on the months following her arrest in Montgomery. She lost her department store job and her husband was fired, after his boss heard about his wife and their legal case. After a year of no work, the couple decided to leave Montgomery and moved to Detroit, Michigan. Her life came better she started working and writing books about freedom.
