Claudette Colvin: The Forgotten Teenager Who Sparked a Movement

At just 15 years old, Colvin refused to give up her seat to a white passenger on a segregated bus in Montgomery, Alabama.

Understanding why reveals much about how history is shaped—not only by events, but by the choices of those who record them.
