Young Rosa Parks Rosa Parks was born on Febuary.9,1913. She lived with her mother, brother and grandparents in Alabama. When she was young she had to leave school to take care of her sick grandmother. Rosa also married a man named Raymond Parks. She made a very important decision on December.1,1955. She would take the first step to change things. One day when Rosa was on the bus, the bus driver told Rosa to give up her seat for a white person Rosa refused. The bus driver said he would have Rosa arrested but Rosa still wouldn’t move. So Rosa was taking to jail. When Rosa was in jail, her lawyers came and said that Rosa should not have been in jail and that the rules on the bus aren’t fair for black people. Rosa Parks has worked for the civil rights movement. She has many honors and awards for all that she has done. But one right stands before them all the right to be treated fairly and with respect.
