Rosa Parks performed an act of civil disobedience. With a historic arrest, she managed to bankrupt the NAACP (the Montgomery bus company that stopped her because of the racist laws prevailing at the time) and also spark the political debate that led to segregation no longer being legal and constitutional.

How to celebrate Rosa Parks Day?

• Events. Create a flyer to announce a concord event. Commemorate with a conference, concert, or streaming event that showcases the light of Rosa Parks.
• Posters. Without using Photoshop, create a poster to celebrate the legacy of this peaceful African-American activist in your community or cultural center.
• Quotes with background images. A quote is an exact replica of a famous phrase or statement that is inserted into a speech, publication, or content of your own. Add an image inspired by Rosa Parks to bring quotes and facts about this brave person to people who don't know her.
• Cover pages. Create a header or a cover for your social networks (Facebook, Twitter, etc) and inform your followers of promotions, announcements, and offers from your business or store.

What is Rosa Parks famous for?

In 1943 Rosa Parks boarded a bus driven by driver James Frederick Blake in Montgomery, Alabama. After paying her fare, Blake told her to get off and enter the bus through the back door, as all African Americans were supposed to do. When Rosa Parks complied and got off the bus, Blake started the bus and left her on the ground. That day, Rosa decided never again to get on a bus driven by Blake.

However, on December 1, 1955, Rosa Parks got on a bus with other black people without noticing who was driving the bus. A few stops later, a white passenger got on. It was then that Rosa saw James Blake, who said:

- "You'd better get up quietly and vacate those seats."

The other three black passengers complied. Rosa Parks refused. For this, she was arrested and fined $10, plus another $4 in court fees. This case sparked the Montgomery Bus Boycott, which bankrupted that company. And, of course, it sparked a political conflict that went down in human history as it ushered in the gradual dismantling of segregation laws in the USA.
