This book offers a revealing look at Rosa Parks, whose role as an
activist and struggle with racism began long before her historic
1955 Montgomery, Alabama, bus ride. Rosa Parks: A Biography
captures the story of this remarkable woman like no other biography
of her before it. It examines the entire scope of Rosa Parks's
life, from her birth in 1913 in Tuskegee, Alabama to her 1943
enrollment in the Montgomery NAACP to the dramatic events of the
1960s, and her continuing work up to her death in 2005. Each
chapter provides an exploration of a period in Parks's life,
portraying the people, places, and events that shaped and were
shaped by her. Readers will see in Parks, not an inadvertent
tripwire of history, but a woman whose lifelong struggle against
racism led her inexorably to a moment where she took a courageous
stand by sitting down and not moving. Includes a timeline of
critical people and events in Rosa Parks's life Offers a
bibliography of archival, newspaper, documentary, secondary, and
internet resources
