Rosa Parks
Rosa was a very determined woman
Who was she?
Rosa was a woman, but she wasn't treated like any woman today. Rosa parks is a colored woman and she did not like the way colored people were treated, so she did something about it.
What did she do?
Rosa was on the bus one day, and there was nowhere for her to sit, her area of seating was full, so she said with the whites. Rosa didn't like the way they treated colored people, and her family and loved ones of the same race, so when the driver asked her to stand up so a white man could sit down, she refused. She says she doesn't remember feeling angry, just determined, she wanted to let them know that shes not going to stand to see people treated so poorly anymore. Rosa was threatened to be arrested, and she then was. She was found guilty, but she did not regret her actions.
