| Title: Rosa Parks |
| Size: 18" x 24" |
| Price: £15.00 |
On December 1st, 1955, Rosa Parks refused to give up her seat on a bus to a white man who was standing as all the ‘white’ seats had been taken. She was arrested and on December 5th, a boycott of the buses started that lasted for 381 days. The boycott only ended when shop keepers in Montgomery urged a settlement as their livelihoods were being ruined as so few Black people went into Montgomery to do any shopping. In 1956, the Supreme Court deemed that segregation on buses was unconstitutional. This legal ruling is seen as being of great significance in civil rights history and hence Rosa Parks was given the title “Mother of the Civil Rights Movement”. A modest woman, Rosa Parks said of her fight for justice, equality and human dignity
“Four decades later I am still uncomfortable with the credit given to me for starting the bus boycott. I would like (people) to know I was not the only person involved. I was just one of many who fought for freedom.”
A great resource for discussing Rosa Parks impact on the Civil Rights movement
