14. On March 2, 1955, however, Colvin’s life changed forever. The fifteen year old boarded a segregated, city bus on her way home from school, her mind filled with what she’d been learning during Negro History Week. At one stop, several white passengers got on, and the bus driver ordered her and three others to move, though there were other seats available for the white passengers. Three got up, Colvin stayed. As she says, “I felt like Sojourner Truth was pushing down on one shoulder and Harriet Tubman was pushing down on the other – saying. ‘Sit down girl!’ I was glued to my seat.” Colvin´s refusal led to her arrest. She was taken off the bus by two police officers whose behavior made her fear she might be raped. Charged with violating segregation laws, misconduct, and resisting arrest, her conviction and subsequent probation left Colvin feeling she would never get the education and achieve profession she so desired. The African American community was outraged. Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. came to Montgomery to fight her arrest, and leaders in the civil rights movement sought a way to end bus segregation. They looked at Claudette Colvin as a potential “face” of the movement. As Colvin’s friend Reverend Johnson told her, “Everyone prays for freedom. We’ve all been praying and praying. But you’re different – you want your answer the next morning. And I think you’ve just brought the revolution to Montgomery.” However, she was deemed too young and her complexion too dark to be the right fit. Then she became pregnant (by a man whose name Colvin will not disclose), and that was that. Nine months later Rosa Parks refused to give up her seat on a bus and the boycott that was contemplated when Colvin was arrested, began. Parks was educated, older, lighter-skinned, and a seamstress. Although her refusal to move was not directly planned, she was part of the civil rights movement. She had been trained for civil disobedience by the NAACP. Before Rosa, There Was Claudette
