a. Civil disobedience. In the specific case of Rosa Parks, the bus driver famously (or infamously) yelled that she “get to the back of the bus!” implying that she be seated farther to the segregated rear seats for African Americans, while Caucasians were allowed by free choice to sit in the preferred seats father forward. Hope that helps!
