DETROIT (WKZO) -- A civil rights icon is being honored in
Detroit. Rosa Parks's 100th birthday is being marked with an
all-day program at the Henry Ford Museum. The United States
Postal Service is also unveiling a stamp with her likeness on it
at the Charles H. Wright Museum. Parks became a leader of the
civil rights movement when she refused to give up her seat to a
white man on a city bus in Alabama in 1955. Rosa Parks and her
husband later moved to Detroit, where she lived until her death
in 2005.
