February 4th is Rosa Parks Day!!!

February 4th is Rosa Parks Day!!!

A true inspiration and perfect example of someone that stands up for what she believes in no matter the consequence. Her defiance and standing up for her rights gave and still gives people the inspiration today. Other people decided to follow the charge and the mission, helping bring light to something that was happening to black people everyday. Not only did she stand-up for her rights to ride where she wanted to on a bus, but she helped in court cases and helped to get the legal system changed so the idiotic laws against black people were repealed. Thank you Ms. Parks for all of your contributions and inspiration! Please click the link below and learn more about Rosa Parks. :-)

"I have learned over the years that when one's mind is made up, this diminishes fear; knowing what must be done does away with fear." - Rosa Parks
