ROSA PARKS - QUOTES COLLECTION BIOGRAPHY, ACHIEVEMENTS AND LIFE LESSONS ABOUT ROSA PARKS Rosa Louise McCauley Parks, a name etched into the annals of history, is synonymous with courage, resilience, and the indomitable spirit that fueled the Civil Rights Movement in the United States. Born on February 4, 1913, in Tuskegee, Alabama, Rosa Parks emerged as a symbol of resistance against racial injustice, forever altering the trajectory of the fight for civil rights. QUOTES SAMPLES: "I have learned over the years that when one's mind is made up, this diminishes fear; knowing what must be done does away with fear." "Each person must live their life as a model for others." "I would like to be remembered as a person who wanted to be free... so other people would be also free." "I'm tired of being treated like a second-class citizen." "Racism is still with us. But it is up to us to prepare our children for what they have to meet, and, hopefully, we shall overcome." "All I was doing was trying to get home from work."
