About Rosa Parks

This is the lead single from OutKast’s 1998 Aquemini. “Rosa Parks” may not have been the duo’s most successful single, but it established OutKast’s legitimacy as pioneers of Southern hip-hop. On 1 December 1955 in Montgomery, Alabama, Rosa Parks refused to obey bus driver James Blake’s order to give up her seat in the colored section to a white passenger. This incident is said to be one of the catalysts of the Civil Right Movement in America in the 1950s and 1960s. .

[01:52.52] Awfully sad and it's costly but that's all she wrote
[01:55.63] And I hope I never have to float in that boat
