Rosa Parks refusing to give up her seat on the Montgomery, Alabama bus was the fire to that spark. Rosa, standing up for herself something anyone person in today’s world would do, was arrested and put in jail. While Rosa was in jail she caught the eye of many people in the Civil Rights Movement, including the leaders. The Civil Rights leaders protested her arrest and hired lawyers to aid her in her trial.

Abigail Adams married a man destined to be a major leader of the American Revolution and the second President of the United States. Although she married and raised men that become such significant figures during their time, her herself was played an important role in the American society.

She was the second born of a strongly rooted Quaker family of eight (Hist.Bio.-1). Because they lived in a Quaker neighborhood, Susan was not heavily exposed to slavery.

Jack makes fun of Melanie’s future husband and asked random questions to keep the conversation going. First, he tells her that William is nineteen years older than him. He even calls him granddaddy and questions her on how old William is going to be when her baby turns ten. Furthermore, Jack asked William out of nowhere if he smokes. He asked him that question to see if he responded yes so he can make another argument. According to Bausch, “He sat down in his kitchen and tried to think of something else to say” (89).
