She not only reveals Parks���s personal, financial, and political struggles, but also highlights the danger of the ���quiet seamstress��� narrative, especially in an age where civil rights activism can be weaponized against those working for change.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePresenting a powerful corrective to the popular iconography of Rosa Parks, Theoharis excavates her political philosophy and six decades of activism. By detailing the political depth of a national heroine who dedicated her life to fighting inequality, Theoharis resurrects a civil rights movement radical who has been hidden in plain sight far too long, further showing how Parks and others helped pave the way for future activist organizations.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"RANDOM HOUSE US","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51040221692151,"sku":"9780807020616","price":475.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0944\/3973\/5543\/files\/8675913482475.jpg?v=1787778865","url":"https:\/\/www.2027textbooks.co.za\/products\/rebellious-life-of-mrs-rosa-parks-tpb-9780807020616","provider":"2027Textbooks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
