Rosa Parks is famous for her pivotal role in the American civil rights movement. On December 1, 1955, in Montgomery, Alabama, she refused to give up her seat to a white person on a bus, in violation of the city's segregation laws. Her act of defiance became a symbol of the struggle against racial segregation and discrimination.
Parks' arrest sparked the Montgomery Bus Boycott, which was led by Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and lasted for more than a year. The boycott aimed to end segregation on public buses and led to a landmark Supreme Court ruling that declared segregation on public transportation unconstitutional.
Rosa Parks is often referred to as "the mother of the civil rights movement" for her courageous stance, and her actions continue to inspire movements for social justice and equality today.
