The History Behind the Image
On December 1, 1955, Rosa Parks, a seamstress and longtime NAACP activist, was arrested in Montgomery, Alabama, for refusing to give up her bus seat to a white passenger. Her arrest launched the Montgomery Bus Boycott, which lasted 381 days and brought a young Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. to national prominence. After the Supreme Court upheld the ruling against bus segregation, the boycott ended, and on December 21, 1956, Parks was photographed riding near the front of a newly desegregated Montgomery bus. That widely published photo is often mistaken for an image of her 1955 arrest, but no photograph of the arrest itself is known to exist.
About the Founder
Founder William Armstead built Motivational Product Depot, originally D'azi Productions, around the belief that history can motivate. Each poster in his collection connects a single word, such as courage, vision, or strength, to a moment or a person from Black history, so the lesson lands every time someone walks past it.
