The Civil Rights Movement sparked off with events such as the death of Emmett Till. And it truly sparked off when Rosa Parks refused to give up her seat to a white man. She stood up against an unfair system and government by sitting down! It has been said that the death of Emmett Till and the trial afterwards had made Rosa Parks especially angry, and that he was in the back of her mind when she refused to move.
Read about the Civil Rights Movement in your compendium at page 20 - 21. Then write a summary of the text where you include the most important events and facts.
