Geocache Description:

12/22/11 The container for this one has been upgraded to a small to hold some small trackables. This hide was a little trickier to find then we originally intended. (We got a little carried away with the camo!) So we decided that we would upgrade it to a small. It is always nice to have something to find besides micros! Happy hunting!

Rosa Parks...On December 1, 1955 in Montgomery, Alabama, Rosa Parks, age 42, refused to obey bus driver James Blake's order that she give up her seat to make room for a white passenger. While her action was not the first of its kind to impact the civil rights issue, Parks' individual action of civil disobedience created further impact by sparking the Montgomery Bus Boycott.
Parks' act of defiance became an important symbol of the modern Civil Rights Movement and Parks became an international icon of resistance to racial segregation. She organized and collaborated with civil rights leaders, including boycott leader Martin Luther King, Jr., helping to launch him to national prominence in the civil rights movement.
During a 1956 radio interview with Rosa Parks several months after her arrest, when asked why she had decided not to vacate her bus seat, Parks said, "I would have to know for once and for all what rights I had as a human being and a citizen."
Please enjoy this area in Normal designated to recognize Rosa Parks.
