Summary

• «De lo único que estaba cansada era de rendirme.» El 1 de diciembre de 1955, Rosa Parks se negó a ceder su sitio a un hombre blanco en un bus segregado, provocando el boicot de los autobuses de Montgomery (Alabama). Un año después, cuando ¬ finalmente este terminó, la segregación en los buses fue declarada inconstitucional, el movimiento por los derechos civiles se convirtió en una causa nacional y Rosa Parks perdió su trabajo. Pero hay mucho más de esta historia que no conocemos, y que va más allá de un acto de desobediencia. Recurriendo a un lenguaje sencillo y conmovedor, Rosa Parks narra su papel crucial en la lucha por la igualdad de los norteamericanos. Su dedicación fue inspiradora; su lucha, inolvidable. -- Amazon
• The only thing I was tired of was giving up. On December 1, 1955, Rosa Parks refused to give up her seat to a white man on a segregated bus, prompting the Montgomery, Alabama, bus boycott. A year later, when it finally ended, bus segregation was declared unconstitutional, the civil rights movement became a national cause, and Rosa Parks lost her job. But there is much more to this story that we do not know, and that goes beyond an act of disobedience. Using simple and poignant language, Rosa Parks recounts her crucial role in the fight for American equality. Her dedication was inspiring; her fight, unforgettable. - Amazon
