In Montgomery, Ala., on December 1,1955, Rosa Parks made
history by being the black w om an w ho refused to obey the driver o f
the bus w hen h e gave her the order to give up her seat on the city
bus to make room for a white passenger. H er actions sparked the
M ontgom ety Bus Boycott, and made history. H er refusal became

T h e Little Rock N ine was a group o f African-American
students w ho were enrolled in Little Rock Central High School
in 1957. T h e ensuing Little Rock Crisis, in which the students
were initially prevented from entering the racially segregated school
by Arkansas Governor Orval Eaubus, and then attended after the
intervention o f President Eisenhower, is considered to be one o f
the m ost im portant events in the African-American O vil Rights
Movement. O n their first day o f school, troops from the Arkansas
National Guard would not let them enter the school and they were
followed by mobs making threats to lynch.
