Answer:Contrary to some reports, Parks wasn't physically tired and was able to leave her seat. She refused on principle to surrender her seat because of her race, which was required by the law in Montgomery at the time. Parks was briefly jailed and paid a fine.

Answer:

Because instead of just accepting that things were unfair for African Americans within America and allowing it to continue she decided to protest by staying within her seat. And that was a small little thing that one person did that let so many others know that it's possible to stand up for your beliefs.

Step-by-step explanation:

Even though she didn't do much standing up because she wanted to stay seated.
