Rosa+Parks+by+Mala

Catagory: Politics  Hello, my name is Rosa Parks and I was born February 4, 1913. I am an African American civil rights activist. In December 1, 1995 I got on a bus and back then, buses was separated for white’s and blacks. The whites would sit in the front, and only very few seats were left over for the blacks. I sat down and many white passengers were filling up the bus so the sign for ‘colored’ was moved a row behind from where I was sitting. I was asked to move to the colored section by one of the white passenger’s and I refused. Hence, the bus driver got up and told me to move but, I simply said no. For my disagreement I was arrested. But that was fine with me because why should I move; I am just like everybody else. My actions in politics have impacted the human race and world showing that we are all a family, we are all the same. No matter where we come from we should approve of everybody. Black people were never given chances to do things to make changes, everybody thought of us as nothing, like dirt. I wanted to make chances for black people not be given one. I am a risk taker, no matter what it took; I made a change but not just for blacks for the human race. I am caring and care for people and the rights they have A small change can make a big difference. I am also a risk taker becuase of what i did that day, and making a small difference has made me a risk taker, though my risk got my arrested it was still a big change that would last long. I am reflective because after what I did I heard and saw through out the years, that my change had been made and different people from different races started to unite. My impact on people is so important becuase the color of our skin does not sepereate us, it just means that we are from different places and cultures. It is good to have people that are different becuase we can learn so much more of different thinking. The step I took to this day has changed the world, it has given us more more freedom and rights. If Rosa Parks was never born the goal of segragation would have never started. Bibliography Rosa Parks - The women who changed the Nation." //GrandTimes.com//. N.p., n.d. Web. 3 Nov. 2010. .
