Current Event #4

on February 4th it marked the 100th year birthday of the famous rosa park who being named the mother of the civil rights movement refused to give up her seat to a white man on a bus and then was later taken to jail for not doing so.

unfortunately Parks was not able to see her 100th birthday because she past away 5 year ago at the age of 92. Rosa parks was also honored at this years inauguration for her brave acts.

i think that it is a great honor that Rosa park is being remembered for what she did and she also changed the lives of many African Americans all over the world
