Abstract
This Boycott Blues: How Rosa Parks Inspired a Nation lesson introduces students to the story of Rosa Parks and the Montgomery Bus Boycott. The lesson includes an introductory activity that orients students to concepts of unfairness and discrimination, followed by a reading of the story. Students engage with primary sources (photographs) to compare and contrast life during segregation and life today. The lesson may be expanded to include a study of notable individuals involved in the Civil Rights Movement. Students utilize higher order thinking skills to determine ways to deal with issues of unfair situations they encounter. Throughout the lesson, students exhibit their learning through discussion, writing, and artistic expression.
