Question

Rosa Parks (1913–2005) was an African–American woman. Tired from a long day at work she

refused to give up her seat on a bus to a white man on 1 December 1955. Her refusal that day

started a huge agitation against the unequal ways in which African–Americans were treated

and which came to be known as the Civil Rights Movement. The Civil Rights Act of 1964

prohibited discrimination on the basis of race, religion or national origin. It also stated that all

schools would be open to African–American children and that they would no longer have to

attend separate schools specially set up for them. However, despite this, a majority of African–

Americans continue to be among the poorest in the country. Most African- American children

can only afford to attend government schools that have fewer facilities and poorly qualified

teachers as compared to white students who either go to private schools or live in areas where

the government schools are as highly rated as private schools.
