Rosa Parks: My Story (Part 2)

Rosa Parks is often called “the mother of the civil rights movement” because of her brave decision to refuse giving up her bus seat in 1955.

In your own words, explain why her actions were so important. How do you think one person’s quiet act of courage can lead to big changes in the world?

(Use details from her story and connect it to what you’ve learned about standing up for what is right.)

Your response must be 7-10 sentences.
