Black History Fact for Today: Rosa Parks ; civil rights activist was born in Tuskegee, Alabama, to parents James and Leona McCauley. She is known for getting arrested after refusing to give up her bus seat to a white passenger, after a white bus driver demanded that she do so.
The brave act of defiance, which took place on Dec. 1, 1955, in Montgomery, Alabama, led to a year-long bus boycott by Montgomery’s Black residents. The movement eventually led to a Supreme Court ruling that said bus segregation was unconstitutional.
