Which is found in "On the Bus with Rosa Parks" but not in My Story?
Read the excerpt from My Story. I did not go down with the others to present that petition to the bus company and the city officials, because I didn’t feel anything could be accomplished. I had decided that I would not go anywhere with a piece of paper in my hand asking white folks for any favors. I had made that decision myself, as an individual.
Read the excerpt from My Story.Here it was, half a century after the first segregation law, and there were 50,000 African Americans in Montgomery. More of us rode the buses than Caucasians did, because more whites could afford cars. It was very humiliating having to suffer the indignity of riding segregated buses twice a day, five days a week, to go downtown and work for white people.
