(Summer Learning Journey)

There is a lot of awesome people in history. Rosa Parks is one, let me tell you about her. Rosa Parks was born in february the fourth, nineteen thirteen in Tuskegee Alabama. Sadly her parents didn't want to be together, so her and her Mum moved to Pine level, Alabama that means that she had to live with her grandparents. It also meant that she had to hear a lot of mean things to African Americans. It taught her she had to be strong! Her grandfather had to protect their farm because of the men to be known as Kukluxklan. They would find then kill African Americans. When it came to school the school was segregated it meant that black students couldn't go to school with white students. Rosa parks loved to be at school but she left it in eleventh grade to help her very ill Mum. Later in school she got her earning school degree.

  In December the first, nineteen fifty five. Rosa Parks changed a lot about the law and African Americans just in a bus because of how white people treat African Americans. The local buses were also segregated, white people in the front black people in the back of the bus. African Americans would go to the front just to pay the ride on the bus then go back to the back of the bus. It was even color coordinated. That day Rosa Parks was moaned at by the bus driver to move her seat for a white lady to sit in her seat. Rosa was sick and tighered how it wasn't fear how their kind were treated like that, Rosa Parks refused to move witch that got her into deep trouble she got arrested. Montgomery bus boycott saw that all African Americans joined and refused to yous the bus to get around town. After Court said to not treat African Americans badly. Everything changed after that day to not treat others that have different skin color unfairly. Rosa Parks died at the age ninety two on october the twenty fourth, two thousand and five. We will remember Rosa Parks in history.
