Course detail: Esther Brown and Rosa Parks: Two Women Who Broke the Law to Make the World a Better Place

Rosa Parks refused to give up her seat on a segregated Cleveland Avenue bus in 1955 and became a civil rights icon. Closer to home, Esther Brown led the 1948 fight to desegregate South Park (now part of Merriam), Kansas, schools. Both women risked a lot to publicly protect civil rights and drive changes in their communities. Join Marlene Katz as she dives into these two stories of courage.
