How did Rosa parks and martin Luther king work together?

Answer 1

When Rosa Parks was arrested on a bus in Montgomery Alabama on December 5, 1955, a meeting was held by local civil rights leaders who formed a group to organize and support a bus boycott in Montgomery. They also selected local minister, Rev. Marting Luther King, Jr. to lead that group. King successfully lead that boycott and went on to lead other civil rights movements, eventually sacrificing his life for that cause. He helped Ms. Parks with his efforts in the same way that he helped all Americans by systematically making segregation and discrimination illegal.

Answer 2

With the exception of being black Americans living under segregation and the discrimination of their time, and their dedication to their cause, they had very little in common.

King was a college educated man who came from an educated family and was married to a college graduate. He had a profession that gave him prestige, enough to be selected to lead the Montgomery boycott. He was an excellent speaker and a charismatic leader. King supported himself and his family by working full time for the civil rights movement.

Rosa was a simple woman, small, shy and soft spoken. She had little prestige as a woman of her time and worked as a housekeeper and seamstress. She tells that she became the secretary for her chapter of the NAACP because she was the only woman. Throughout her years in support of the Civil Rights Movement she also had to work at whatever jobs she could find, which was difficult due to her notoriety. When she retired, she was a widow and was able to devote more time to the civil rights movement.

Answer 3

They both were apart of the Civil Rights Movement. Dr. Martin Luther King wanted equality among all races, not just white and black. He believed that we should "Live up to our creed", meaning, that if we are truly the "United States" then we should be just that, UNITED. Rosa Parks had a hard day at work and when she was asked to give up her seat to a white man, she refused. She was tired, tired of the segregation, tired of constantly being berated because of the color of her skin. They are both alike, because they were Civil Rights Activist. They were advocates for equality.

Answer 4
