Early Life and Education

Rosa Louise McCauley was born on February 4, 1913, in Tuskegee, Alabama. Raised in a modest home, she witnessed firsthand the pervasive discrimination that African Americans faced in the Jim Crow South. Despite the challenges, Rosa excelled in school, demonstrating intelligence and a passion for knowledge.
The Spark That Ignited a Revolution

On December 1, 1955, Rosa Parks' life took an extraordinary turn. While riding a bus home from work, she refused to give up her seat to a white passenger. This act of defiance became the catalyst for the Montgomery Bus Boycott, a nonviolent protest that would ultimately lead to the desegregation of public transportation in the United States.
Rosa's courage and resilience in the face of adversity inspired countless others to join the movement. For over a year, Montgomery's African American community walked, carpooled, and found alternative ways to get around, refusing to patronize the city's segregated bus system.
The Power of Nonviolent Resistance
