In our 7th episode, we talk about the mother of the civil rights movement, Rosa Parks. Parks made history when she refused to get up from her bus seat and sparked the bus boycott and subsequent movement that ended the segregation of public transportation. Rose grew up understanding that because of ther skin color, she was never safe and would never be treated equally. Even at a young age, Rosa knew that this way of living was not right. In one moment, she helped change the course in the fight for racial equality.
