As you all know, Rosa Parks refused to give up her seat to a white man and was arrested. But the way she stood up to the bus driver, the passenger, and the cops, it impacted society. It impacted history! Back then African Americans would never utter such words and actions torward a white person. I, myself am white and I'm very insterested in African American culture and history. Now back to Rosa Parks. When African Americans heard about Rosa's arrest and how she stood up to everybody, they were shocked. They thought, if Rosa can stand up and make a change, so can I.
