Rosa Parks was a quiet but very brave woman who helped change the rules so everyone could be treated equally! One day, she was riding the bus home after a long day of working very hard. The bus driver told her to give up her seat to someone else just because of her skin color, but Rosa bravely said no! She knew that all people are special and deserve to sit wherever they want!
Rosa’s brave choice helped start a huge team of people working together to make the laws fair! Because of her courage, people marched and stopped riding the buses until the rules were changed for everyone. She is known as the “mother of the civil rights movement” because of her big heart! Rosa reminds us that even small acts of bravery can make a giant difference!
