Rosa Parks
1913 - 2005
Mother of the Movement
Birthplace: Tuskegee, Alabama
When people made up their minds that they wanted to be free and took action,
then there was a change. But they couldn't rest on just that change.
It has to continue.
Rosa Parks famously refused to surrender her seat
on a bus to a white person in Montgomery, Alabama in 1955,
and later went to prison for doing so.
