Along with her husband, she campaigned for the registration of Black people on electoral lists and, after experiencing a first racist incident on a bus, she joined the local chapter of the NAACP, the civil rights organization. Elected secretary, she documented racist incidents and notably mobilized on the case of the gang rape of Recy Taylor in 1944. Eleven years later, on December 1, 1955, her arrest following her refusal to give up her seat to a white man on a Montgomery bus sparked the 381-day boycott of the city's public transportation. At the origin of Martin Luther King's first successful mass action, Rosa Parks continued her activism in Detroit where she passed away on October 24, 2005.
