About this ebook
With a simple name change, it seemed that Martin Luther King Jr.’s fate was sealed. Taking the name of a man who led one of the greatest social revolutions of the 16th century, young Martin would later lead an important revolution of his own.
He was first born Michael King in Atlanta, Georgia in 1929.
King’s father, a prevalent Protestant minister who was also named Michael King, decided to adopt the namesake of the great religious reformer after an inspirational trip to Nazi Germany.
Rosa Parks was born in Tuskegee, Alabama on February 4, 1913. After her Parent’s divorce her mother moved Rosa and her Siblings to Pine Level, Alabama, where Rosa’s maternal grandparents resided.
As a child, Rosa was exposed to the realities of segregation. She walked to school daily because the elementary bus system prohibited black students from riding.
Rosa later attended the Alabama state teachers college high school. However, due to both her grandmother and mothers illnesses, she was forced to drop out.
Rosa became active in the civil rights movement along with her husband. She served as a youth leader for the Montgomery chapter of the NAACP, and she worked as a secretary to E.D Nixon, president of the NAACP through 1957.
