Rosa Parks
Assemblywoman Mariko Yamada, D-Davis, holds a photo of the late Civil Rights activist Rosa Parks while calling for passage of her Assembly Resolution honoring Parks during Black History Month ceremonies at the Capitol in Sacramento, Calif., Monday, Feb. 4. 2013. On what would have been her 100th birthday, the Assembly approved the resolution for Parks who became one of the enduring figures of the Civil Rights movement when she refused to cede her seat to a white man on a Montgomery, Ala. bus in 1955. Parks died in 2005.
