« Opinionated Lady | Main | Chain of Rocks Murderer Put to Death »
Rosa Parks died at her home on Monday. She was 92 years-old.
Ms. Parks will forever be remembered for standing up against prejudice (no pun intended) by refusing to give up her bus seat to a white man back in 1955 in Alabama.
Her arrest led to an almost year-long boycott of buses by blacks, organized by Martin Luther King, Jr.
