Best Answer

Rosa Parks wasn't the first African-American person to refuse to give up her seat when asked; but, she was the perfect person to put forth as a poster girl for the cause. The Civil Rights Movement was infused by the Montgomery bus boycott. Her actions and the leaderships decision to boycott the buses made a huge impact on the local economy and forced the hand of the law makers to make changes in the laws.
