Black History Month
I admire Rosa Park’s
courage. She did what
she believed was right.
That night when she
took the bus from a
hard day’s work, and
refused to move to the
back of the bus, she was not tired
physically—she was tired of always
giving in. Nowadays, people, regardless of their color, can sit anywhere on the bus or subway. Seats
are first come first served. You stand
when all seats are taken. Nobody
will deprive you of the seat you
have paid for. And this is because
of Rosa Park’s brave act in 1955.
