Rosa's actions on the bus on December 1, 1955, was so important because what she did showed that blake people can stand up for themselves and that it was time to fight back for their own rights. If Rosa Parks did not stand up for herself and everybody else that matter, nothing would have changed and today black people will still be denied. Black white we are all the same, you are all humans, and we must respect each other.
