Download Black Americans of Achievement: Rosa Parks AudioBook Free
On December 1, 1955, seamstress Rosa Parks got a stand by refusing to stop her seat over a bus to a white man. Her defiance against an unjust system brought on the Montgomery Bus Boycott and helped spark the civil rights movement in the 1960s. Parks demonstrated the effectiveness of unified peaceful protests, and throughout her life she advocated an end to assault, discrimination, and injustice, eventually establishing the Rosa and Raymond Parks Institute for Self-Development. This updated model of Rosa Parks includes fresh insights on the life span and legacy of the woman known as the "mom of the civil rights movement". The e book is publicized by Chelsea House Web publishers, a leading publisher of educational material.
