ACTIVIST: Claudette Colvin
from I Don't Know Her · host Amanda V. Mead & Rita Vigil
Rita gets deep at the start of the show--she shares a question her therapist asked her that she isn't able to answer. Then Amanda shares the story of Claudette Colvin, a teen girl who refused to give up her seat on a Montgomery bus, nine months before Rosa Parks, and she was one of the plaintiffs in the landmark case that made segregation on public transportation unconstitutional. But her story was purposely overlooked and overshadowed. Support our show by becoming a Patreon subscriber or buy some merch on Tee Public. Find both on our Linktree.
