Rosa Parks was a radical. By Jeanne Theoharis (Jacobin, February 4, 2023). “Rosa Parks was born on this day in 1913. Far from being a face of respectability politics, she was a defiant and seasoned working-class organizer who despised the cringing submission that Jim Crow induced and who doggedly fought oppression in all its forms.”
On Rosa Parks’ 100th birthday, recalling her rebellious life before and after the Montgomery Bus (Democracy Now, February 4, 2013). Amy Goodman interviews Jeanne Theoharis, historian, author of the new book, The Rebellious Life of Mrs. Rosa Parks. With Video (58:56 min.) + links.

‘A life history of being rebellious’. By Brian Jones (SocialistWorker.org, November 4, 2005). “Her famous act of defiance–refusing to give up her seat on an Alabama bus in 1955–and her subsequent arrest were the sparks that initiated the famous Montgomery bus boycott, the opening shot of activism in the war that smashed legal segregation.”
Rosa Parks was not the beginning. By J. Douglass Allen-Taylor (Alternet, November 2, 2005). “As the story is told by those who were there at the time, in refusing to give up her seat, Ms. Parks actually repeated an action that had been taken several weeks before by another young black woman.”

By Ann Talbot (World Socialist Web Site, 27-28 September 2006). “Grant’s entire political perspective since the end of World War II had been based on the assumption that the Kremlin bureaucracy, the social democratic parties and trade unions in the West and the national movements in the former colonial and semi-colonial countries would maintain their political hegemony.”
