Rosa Parks’ 111th Birthday Celebration

A consortium emerging from Atlanta, Georgia is showcasing a collaborative 111th birthday commemoration for Mrs. Rosa Parks, often referred to as the “Mother of the Modern-Day Civil Rights Movement” in America. With the collaborative 111th commemoration comes synergism for public awareness and petition work to support a federal holiday. Mrs. Parks, as a recipient of both the Presidential Medal of Freedom and the Congressional Gold Medal of Honor, emphasized that “the work” was not done until she passed in 2005.
