On this date in working-class history: Rosa Parks was arrested for refusing to move from a "whites-only" bus seat in Montgomery, AL.

 


The graphic above comes from Shondaland and accompanies the article "Rosa Parks Was My Aunt. It's Time to Set the Record Straight" by Urana McCauley as told to Liz Dwyer. That post was put up on February 4, 2019. It is a good introduction to Rosa Parks and the events of December 1, 1955.

And don't forget this...
