Think about what else you've read about this time period in the 1950s.
Blacks were second class citizens in the South.
They had to sit on the backs of buses and give up their seats to whites.
Their schools were inferior
They couldn't use the swimming pools when whites were using them.
They had to step into the street when the walk was crowded with whites.
They couldn't eat in most restaurants.
They were frequently insulted by whites.
They couldn't get many jobs that whites held.
They were not welcomed in most white churches.
I'll use the last four in my own words.
Thank You!!!!

They couldn't go to any places like parks or swimming pools as the whites. In the city buses of Montgomery the black people have to sit at the back and whites sit in the front. But the blacks have to give up their seats if the white person wanted to sit down,
Rosa Parks wanted people (blacks) to be free and have a better education. Most blacks couldn't go to the same schools as whites, they went to segregated schools. Most blacks couldn't eat in most restaurants with the whites or without them. They were most of the time insulted by whites and beat. The blacks couldn't get many jobs that whites held.

Rosa Parks became a civil rights leader. On December 1, 1955 in the city buses of Montgomery after Rosa Parks sit in the front of the bus where the white people seat. Rosa was tired after a long day of work as a seamstress for a Montgomery, Alabama, department store and tired of the segregation laws. Rosa took a seat with a man who was next to the window. They were not disturbed until they reached the third stop after she boarded the bus. At this point a few white people boarded the bus, and one white man was left standing. When the driver noticed him standing, he spoke to them (the man and two women across the aisle) and told them to let the man have the seat. The other three all stood up the second time after he barked at them. But the driver saw Rosa still sitting there. He said to give up her seat and she said, "No, I will not." Then he said that she has to arrest her, Rosa didn't care, and she was tired of the laws. When the police came they send her to jail for breaking the law.
