Rosa Parks was born on February 4, 1913 in Alabama. She was an African-American civil rights activist, whom the U.S. Congress called "the first lady of civil rights" and "the mother of the freedom movement".
I am still learning about her, so I will write more later.
I told my mom that if I was there with Rosa Parks, I'll join the boycott with her even when I'm not black. Because segregation was unfair. If it wasn't for people like Abraham Lincoln, Rosa Parks, Martin Luther King Jr. and others, some of my friends wouldn't be in my class today. That's why I think people should stand up for fairness and equality.
