∙ 13y agoAround the time when Rosa Parks was still alive, black people had to sit at the front of the bus and white people at the back of the bus. When Rosa was asked by a white person to move from the back of the bus to the front, thankfully she refused and stayed where she was. She stood up for the black people's rights although she was put in jail, she made a big difference..... whoah this message is long.
