Black and White

Rosa Louise McCauley Parks (February 4, 1913 – October 24, 2005) was an African American (it's more politically correct not to say "Black American") civil rights activist whom the U.S. Congress later called the "Mother of the Modern-Day Civil Rights Movement." On December 1, 1955 in Montgomery, Alabama, Parks, age 42, refused to obey bus driver James Blake's order that she give up her seat to make room for a white passenger. Parks's act of defiance became an important symbol of the modern Civil Rights Movement and Parks became an international icon of resistance to racial segregation. Race is such a difficult issue and the new US president must walk a fine line to avoid political land mines in this country.

This sign that is displayed on US buses gives you a glance of history of the US civil right movement, and it tells you that three languages are used here, although it is sometimes difficult to say which is the official language. Come to Miami to understand more.
