Rosa parks was the first African american women too refuse to sit in the back instead she keep sitting in the front so she was arrested for sitting in the front. She was born on February 4, 1913 in Tuskegee, Alabama. She moved in with her parents james, and Leona McCauley to pine level Alabama at the age of 2 years old. She had a brother his name was sylvester. Rosa parks mother was a teacher, and her family was well educated. Rosa moved to Montgomery, Alabama, at age 11 and eventually attended high school.She left at 16, early in 11th grade, because she needed to care for her dying grandmother. In 1932, at 19, she married Raymond Parks, a self-educated man 10 years her senior who worked as a barber.He supported Rosa in her efforts to earn her high-school diploma, which she ultimately did the following year.“People always say that I didn’t give up my seat because I was tired,” wrote Parks in her autobiography, “but that isn’t true. I was not tired physically… No, the only tired I was, was tired of giving in.”On December 5, Parks was found guilty of violating segregation laws, given a suspended sentence and fined $10 plus $4 in court costs. The reason she made a change is that she was tired of getting pushed around by white people so she stood up and fought back.
