Rosa Parks

Rosa Parks played a big role in creating equality for others. She was born February 4, 1913 and she died October 24, 2005. Rosa Parks feared hearing the KKK. She also formed the Montgomery bus boycott.

In 1957 she continued to fight for equal rights. During December 1, 1955 she didn't give up her seat to a white man. She was brought to trial after this act. It was important that she did this because it helped stop racism. This also helped launch Martin Luther King Jr.

Black people used to have to use different things such as drinking fountains that were usually worse. They couldn't go to all restaurants and they were judged on their color. Whites and blacks are now treated equal and there is less racism.
