Nine months before Rosa Parks refused to give up her seat on a Montgomery, Alabama bus to a white person, Claudette Colvin did the same.

Although Claudette challenged the law in court first, she was 15 years old at the time. The NAACP felt Rosa Parks would be a better icon than a teenager, especially after Claudette got pregnant.

Colvin was born September 5, 1939

On March 2, 1955, she was returning home from school, and in a Capitol Heights bus downtown she sat down about two seats away from an emergency exit in the colored section.

On March 29, 1956, Colvin gave birth to a son, Raymond.

Такі справи.
