Learn about the life of civil rights activist Rosa Parks: her work with the NAACP, bus boycotts, and her lifelong fight against racial inequality.
In memory of the greatness that is Rosa Parks and to celebrate her birthday today, I have decided to post this interesting tidbit entitled The Hidden Life of Rosa Parks, a TedEd lesson by Riché D. Richardson. Directed and animated by Eido (https://www.eido.co/).
Throughout her life, Rosa Parks repeatedly challenged racial violence and the prejudiced systems protecting its perpetrators. Her refusal to move to the back of a segregated bus ignited a boycott that lasted 381 days and helped transform civil rights activism into a national movement. But this work came at an enormous risk and a personal price. Riché D. Richardson details the life of Rosa Parks.
