Rosa Parks is an African American civil rights activisit who became famous when she stood up for what she believed and broke the rules-by sitting down. On December 1,1955, Parks sat in a seat on a bus in Alabama, heading home after a long day of work. She was asked many times by the conductor to move seats but she refused every time the conductor asked. She was arrested later that day for disobeying the Alabama law.
