We have all been taught the story of Rosa Parks in school, but what we were taught was not the whole story. Rosa's actions that day were staged after another woman did the same thing.
Claudette Colvin was a pregnant 15 year old dark skinned black girl who one day refused to give her seat up on the bus. But Claudette did not look the way they needed her to look to get the sympathy from white people that the black community needed to make a change.
So they sent in Rosa, and told Claudette to just be quite. Well we are here to tell her story and make sure the world knows, without Claudette, there would have been no Rosa.
