Tribute To Rosa Parks

Kimberly LaMarque performs an original self-written one-woman play based on the life and times of Rosa Parks, recreating this vital figure's life and character. She recites Park's own words reflecting on her arrest in 1955 in Montgomery, Alabama for refusing to give up her seat on a city bus to a white person.

LaMarque also tells about Rosa's family life and reveals many of her personal experiences with Jim Crow laws in the South. As she speaks on the rise of the civil rights movement, she offers a unique perspective on "which way we should go today?"
