She saw the inherent evil in segregation and she had the courage to fight it in its common place, a seat on a bus.Rosa Parks, a former seamstress, became the first woman to lie in honor in the Capitol Rotunda, sharing the tribute bestowed upon Abraham Lincoln, John F. Kennedy and other national leaders.
