Rosa Parks a 42 year old black seamstress stirred the pot as my husbands grandmother would say. By refusing to do as society said and give up the seat to the white man Rosa lit a spark that would soon become a full fledged fire. The leaders of the local black community heard of what happened and organized a bus boycott. A young revrand named Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. organized the bus boycott that would last more than a year. Rosa Parks would lose her job and be arrested through her actions but would win a societal goal when the U.S. Supreme Court got involved and stated that the bus segregation was unconstitutional.
Rosa Parks is still a very important figure in society and has been honored a number of different times. In 2004 the Los Angeles County MetroRail system named a line of track the "Rosa Parks Station" In 2005 the Metro Transit in King County Washington dedicated the first forward facing seats on buses in Parks' memory. Many other times and places have recognized Rosa Parks.
