As part of your everyday routine, you ride the bus to and from work. However, today the bus trip was quite controversial when an African American woman would not move to the back of the bus and was arrested as a result.
You later learn that her name is Rosa Parks. There are rumors around the community about what really happened, which compels you to write a letter to “The Daily Liberator” explaining your first-hand knowledge.
Click on Rosa Park’s picture to begin your retelling of the events.
