Best Answer

Rosa Parks Refused to give up her seat on the bus when a "white man" entered the bus. At that time if a man or woman who was light skinned needed a seat, an African American had to give up their seat. When she didn't, they arrested her. After that African Americans started to reuse to ride the bus, causing the bus line to lose money.
