Ciné-ONU: THE REBELLIOUS LIFE OF MRS. ROSA PARKS
“The Rebellious Life of Mrs. Rosa Parks”, based on the bestselling biography by Jeanne Theoharis
and executive produced by award-winning journalist Soledad O’Brien, takes a deeper dive into Rosa Parks’ often overlooked
breadth of accomplishments and the impact of her fight to overcome racial injustice. Detailing her achievements beyond the
mere fraction of Parks' life taught in schools, the film takes a deeper dive into the groundbreaking actions spearheaded by
Rosa throughout the course of the civil rights movement.
