Most people think of Rosa Parks as the first person to refuse to give up their seat on a bus in Montgomery, Alabama. There were actually several women who came before her; one of whom was Claudette Colvin.

It was March 2, 1955, when the fifteen-year-old schoolgirl refused to move to the back of the bus, nine months before Rosa Parks’ stand that launched the Montgomery bus boycott. Claudette had been studying Black leaders like Harriet Tubman in her segregated school, those conversations had led to discussions around the current day Jim Crow laws they were all experiencing. When the bus driver ordered Claudette to get up, she refused, “It felt like Sojourner Truth was on one side pushing me down, and Harriet Tubman was on the other side of me pushing me down. I couldn't get up."

The night before the march, Dr. King began working on his speech with a small group of advisers in the lobby of the Willard Hotel. The original speech was more political and less historic, according to Clarence B. Jones, and it did not include any reference to dreams. After delivering the now famous line, “we are not satisfied, and we will not be satisfied until justice rolls down like waters and righteousness like a mighty stream,” Dr. King transformed his speech into a sermon.

Onstage near Dr. King, singer Mahalia Jackson reportedly kept saying, “Tell ‘em about the dream, Martin,” and while no one will know if he heard her, it could likely have been the inspiration he needed.

One in four cowboys was Black, despite the stories told in popular books and movies.

In fact, it's believed that the real “Lone Ranger” was inspired by an African American man named Bass Reeves. Reeves had been born a slave but escaped West during the Civil War where he lived in what was then known as Indian Territory. He eventually became a Deputy U.S. Marshal, was a master of disguise, an expert marksman, had a Native American companion, and rode a silver horse. His story was not unique however.

What is the difference between a monologue and a soliloquy? A soliloquy is spoken while alone on stage. A monologue is spoken in
Andrej [43]

Answer:

A). A soliloquy is spoken while alone on stage.

Explanation:

As per the question, the key difference between a soliloquy and a monologue is that 'a soliloquy is spoken by a character to himself/herself while he/she is alone on stage' while a monologue is a conversational speech that is made by an individual to the audience directly.

However, both the devices are employed by the authors to reveal the thoughts, feelings, or opinions of the character to the audience but soliloquy on the one hand is regardless of the audience or speakers('Hamlet's talking to himself alone as 'to be or not to be' which reveal his thoughts aloud) and usually more precise while monologue on the other hand is a lengthy and tedious speech made by one character in the middle of a conversation to the audience deliberately which may or may not reveal the actual thoughts. Thus, <u>option A</u> is the correct answer.
