|---|
| 55 | 55 | | The Congress finds the following: 5 |
|---|
| 56 | 56 | | (1) Rosa Parks, widely celebrated as the 6 |
|---|
| 57 | 57 | | ‘‘Mother of the Civil Rights Movement’’, became an 7 |
|---|
| 58 | 58 | | iconic figure when she refused to give up her seat 8 |
|---|
| 59 | 59 | | on a segregated bus in Montgomery, Alabama, on 9 |
|---|
| 60 | 60 | | December 1, 1955, igniting a pivotal movement that 10 |
|---|
| 61 | 61 | | challenged racial segregation and forever altered the 11 |
|---|
| 62 | 62 | | course of American history. 12 |
|---|
| 63 | 63 | | (2) Born on February 4, 1913, in Tuskegee, 13 |
|---|
| 64 | 64 | | Alabama, to Leona McCauley, a teacher, and James 14 |

| 65 | 65 | | McCauley, a carpenter, Parks grew up in the seg-15 |

| 74 | 74 | | the National Association for the Advancement of 24 |
|---|
| 75 | 75 | | Colored People, where she served as Secretary and 25 |

|---|
| 81 | 81 | | Emmett Till. 2 |
|---|
| 82 | 82 | | (5) On December 1, 1955, Parks was arrested 3 |
|---|
| 83 | 83 | | for refusing to give up her seat to a White man on 4 |
|---|
| 84 | 84 | | a segregated bus in Montgomery, Alabama, an act 5 |
|---|
| 85 | 85 | | that led to the historic 381-day Montgomery Bus 6 |
|---|
| 86 | 86 | | Boycott by more than 40,000 riders. 7 |
|---|
| 87 | 87 | | (6) The boycott sparked a legal challenge to 8 |
|---|
| 88 | 88 | | Montgomery’s bus segregation laws, which cul-9 |

|---|
| 92 | 92 | | (7) Following the boycott, Parks faced signifi-13 |
|---|
| 93 | 93 | | cant personal and economic hardships, including the 14 |
|---|
| 94 | 94 | | loss of her job and ongoing threats to her life, yet 15 |
|---|
| 95 | 95 | | her determination to fight for justice remained 16 |
|---|
| 96 | 96 | | steadfast. 17 |

|---|
| 102 | 102 | | to racial segregation and injustice, and her act of 23 |
|---|
| 103 | 103 | | defiance inspired civil rights movements around the 24 |
