Rosa Parks was a well respected woman in history , She was known for the montgomery bus boycott , one day one her way home from her job she sat down on a bus thinking it would be a normal day and then it went for a turn on December 1 1995 she was approchaed by a white person and was asked to move because back then blacks had to sit in the back and if they were asked to move their seat because a white passenger wanted to sit they were suppose to move , but on this day Rosa Parks thought she had enough of this so she refuesed to move and she just sat there. Back then white and blacks could not sit in the same row it was either the whole row would be black passengers or all the passengers had to move back so that one could sit in that row.She refuesed to move so then when she was approached by James Blake who was the bus driver he said move to the back of the bus she still did not move , when the bus driver asked her to move once more she refuesed again the police were called and when the police showed up they asked her to move or the would have to fine and arrest her , She just sat there and so they they had to arrest her and fined her 14 dollars. She was brought to the jail and booked in finger printed and then sat in jail until she was released on bail by E.D Nixon.
