Why Rosa Parks' house travelled 8000 miles
Delve into the history of the iconic civil rights activist's house
Rosa Parks has been called ''the first lady of civil rights'' - it was in 1955 that she refused to give up her seat on a bus in Montgomery, Alabama, to a white passenger. Now her house which was saved from demolition is returning from Berlin where it was reconstructed to the US.
