Rosa Parks

On this date in 1955 Mrs. Rosa Parks a seamstress from Alabama, was tired and just wanted a seat, so she sat in the front of the bus. This was the beginning of the civil rights movement. After that racial segregation on city buses was outlawed.

1.Do you think you would have been as brave as Rosa Parks, and break the law? why or why not?
