This is a fully editable, PowerPoint presentation on the life of Rosa Parks, the famous civil rights activist who refused to give up her seat to a white person on the Montgomery bus, which was the catalyst for the Montgomery Bus Boycott and subsequent civil rights campaigns that eventually led to major civil rights reforms for African -Americans in the United States.
It is an ideal resource for Black History Month (African-American Month) that falls in October in the UK and February in the USA and will help students’ Spiritual, Moral, Social and Cultural (SMSC) development by learning about the history and heritage of communities and the lives of those that overcame the challenges they faced.
The PowerPoint makes reference to:
– Her parents and family
– Her schooling and education
– Her refusal to give up her seat to a white person on the Montgomery bus
– Her arrest and its significance on the civil rights movement legislation
– Her civil rights activities
– Her awards and tributes
The PowerPoint contains hyperlinks to Rosa receiving the Congressional Medal from President Clinton and a short video on her life and achievements.
