While all of her work helped advance civil rights, Rosa Parks’ most famous contribution was her nonviolent protest on a segregat

ed Montgomery bus on December 1, 1955. On that day, she was arrested for refusing to give up her seat to a white passenger. Rosa Parks’ arrest made headlines, and she became an inspiration and hero to people everywhere. This incident ignited the Montgomery Bus Boycott that lasted 381 days, a boycott that sparked a nationwide movement to end segregation of public facilities. With the success of the boycott, led by Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., activists were inspired to push for equality in all matters. Schools eventually became integrated, Jim Crow Laws were abolished, and the 1964 Civil Rights Act was passed, legally ending segregation and employment discrimination. Rosa Parks died of natural causes on October 24, 2005 in Detroit, MI, but her legacy continues. Q: A: Which sentence would be the BEST concluding sentence for this paragraph? A) Rosa Parks also became a member of the Montgomery Voters' League and helped black citizens pass the test required for voting registration. B) When asked by the driver why she was refusing to move for the white passenger, Rosa Parks stated, “I don't think I should have to stand up.” C) Rosa Parks' interest in civil rights was sparked at age nineteen, when she married a barber named Raymond Parks, who was active in the Civil Rights Movement. D) Rosa Parks is remembered for choosing to fight for her rights in a nonviolent way, inspiring a movement that eventually led to equal rights for all U.S.

What was the major complaint with the Lecompton Constitution?
vitfil [10]
The Lecompton Constitution was the second of the four proposed constitution for the state of Kansas. The document was written in response to the anti slavery position of the 1855 Topeka constitution of James H. Lane and other free state advocates. The territorial legislative, consisting mostly of slave owners met at a designated capital of lecompton in September 1857 to produce a rival document. Free state supporters who comprised a large majority of actual settlers boycotted the vote. I hope this helps.
