Steps of Success By: Trazell Primuse Durfee K-8 School
Moves of Success Sit Walk Run Fly “Rosa Parks sat so (Dr.) Martin Luther King Jr. could walk. Martin walked so Obama could run. Obama is running so we all can fly.” - Jay Z
Step 1: Sit On December 1, 1955 Rosa Parks sat on a bus and refused to give up her seat to a white man. She believed that there was no reason why she had to give up her seat.
Step 2: Walk Dr. King lead the Montgomery bus Boycott so people like Rosa Parks could sit where they want. He later delivered The speech “I Have A Dream” to try to make the world better for America during the 1963 March on Washington.
Barack Obama Step 3: 45 years after Martin gave African Americans hope with his speech Barack Obama ran for President. Barack becoming President shows us that we can do anything. No matter your race, gender, nor color.
The People who make up the American Dream Rosa Parks and Martin Luther King Jr. - Yesterday Barack Obama - Today You -Tomorrow
What's next…. Now that Rosa has sat, Marin has walked, and Obama has ran, we must continue by flying. We now know that dreams can become a reality so we must fly so that those who come after us can take the time to Rest.
