## Caption

For years, history books have framed Rosa Parks’ legacy around her 1955 arrest that sparked the beginning of the Montgomery Bus Boycott. However, her commitment to activism began nearly two decades before this pivotal moment in time.

In honor of her birthday, we’re highlighting the work Rosa Parks did long before participating in the bus boycotts. Its not just one major moment but her lifelong commitment to community service and social justice that earned her the title of “mother of the civil rights movement.”
