Rosa Parks


On this day in 1955 Rosa Parks decided after a long day of work to take the bus home. There were no seats in the back of the bus so Rosa sat right down in the front. A white man told her to get up, Rosa said my feet hurt, in a very polite manner. Rosa was then driven to the police station by the bus driver and Rosa Parks arrested.

I describe rosa parks as a good woman that would do anything to stand up for herself.If I was tired and somebody told me I had to go to the back of the bus.I would break the law if I had to because it wouldn't be fair to break your back working so someone could come over and tell me to go to the back of the bus because a white person wants to sit in the front.

If I was rosa parks I will break the law because that is not far outhat african aericans have to sit in the back of the bus!I will say I dont care you go sit in the back it is the samething.Rosa parks was women that wanted the same right as the other people.

Pretend today that you are Rosa Parks.
You worked all day and are tired. What will you do?
I wouldn't do the same thing. I know how the times were but at the time it just wasn't the thing I would do.
Would you break the law?
No. I would have just up and moved to the back. The only this hated about the whole bus thing was that they would make the blacks stand or get of and whites had the right of way. Standing and moving to the back is just and inconvenience not really an issue. I don't really understand why it was such a huge issue.
How would you describe Rosa Parks?
Shes really brave there was a lot of racial tension then and the little inconvenient law was the way to break the ice for other blacks to be thought as real people and for blacks to start standing out for what they thought was right for them.

I would probably walk because I read a book and she rode the bus and a white person wanted her seat and she would would not get up. No I will not break the law because that would be bad on my life. She is a black woman would fight for her people and never give up on what she wants to do.Also,she is very hopeful and you can trust her.

If I was Rosa, even if I did get arrested, I'd tell the white bus driver that everyone should be treated fairly, whatever race or color they are.

I think I probably would break the law if I knew I wanted to make a change in what went on, on the bus. Despite the fact that they would be yelling, screaming and cursing at me.. I wouldn't care because I would be trying to make a difference.

Yes, I would break to law because it wouldn't be fair that I would have to sit at the back of the bus everyday. How would I describe Rosa Parks is that she is a person that thinks that everything has to be fair and a person that does something that she really wants to do.
